Thomas Brooks emphasizes the humble and poor condition of Jesus Christ, who lived without a home and died in poverty, contrasting His life with the worldly wealth that many seek. He reminds believers that Christ's lowly state serves as a model for their own struggles, encouraging them to find solace in their hardships by recognizing that they are not worse off than their Lord. Brooks urges Christians to reflect on Christ's humility to cultivate a spirit of contentment and resilience in the face of their own trials.
