To be honest, most people would rather be served than to serve. Sometimes profit becomes more valued than people. Sometimes power is more attractive than service. We think service is below us, yet Jesus, though having more power than any of us, came down to serve us. As minister Aaron Hill continues his series on the Gospel of John, he references John 13 and the scene depicted there of Jesus washing His disciples feet. He is beginning His farewell speech to them, and He teaches them an important lesson: to be great, people must make themselves servants of others just as Christ gave up His throne in heaven to become a servant and give us eternal salvation. To His disciples then and now He says, "If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them" (John 13:17). He cleanses us and sends us out to serve.
