From John 13:1-17
Serving others is one of the greatest tools we have in showing the love of Christ, yet it is often reserved for those times when it is convenient for us to do so. We set aside time to serve, but when our service is “complete” we are back to our own pursuits.
In the account of Jesus washing His disciples’ feet in John’s Gospel, we see one of the most startling displays of servanthood, and the example we are called to follow. When we consider that the most worthy of being honored in that room, stopped and honored those with Him, we are challenged to consider what a life of service might look like for us…and how it might impact the lives of those around us!
