Have you ever been involved in gathering sweet and ready fruit off a vine or a tree? I have found this to be really fun - especially if I get to eat some of the fruit after picking it! Jesus said gathering people for eternal life is like gathering fruit at harvest time. There is wonderful joy and personal rewards from God when we do this. My prayer is that all of us will gain fresh excitement in this new year and start gathering as many people as possible to eternal life by introducing them to Jesus our Lord.

The last night Jesus was with His disciples before He went to the cross He took the role of a common household servant and washed His disciples’ feet. He was intentionally setting an important example for all who would be His disciples to humbly serve others. This is Jesus’ calling and privilege for each of us today. This morning God wants to challenge us to humble ourselves and learn to serve others in this New Year. Are you willing?
