Pondering Point

As we come and go in this life of following Jesus, one challenge we encounter with our sinful flesh is maintaining an attitude of servanthood and personal sacrifice. You might add a sense of entitlement that seems to have rooted itself into today’s culture as well.

Jesus was very clear that He had come to serve. He, the self-proclaimed Son of Man, took on the nature of man and united it with His God-nature in order to serve mankind – through healing, teaching, leading – and yes dying. But he also served through the washing of feet, through compassionate presence and through simple acts of kindness.
