And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. (Joshua 24:15)
After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. (John 13:5)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

Imitating Christ in Service

The act of Christ washing the feet of his disciples is a powerful example of humility and service that leaders should emulate. It demonstrates the importance of serving others with true joy and Christian devotion, without expecting anything in return. We all wear a cloak of pride, false modesty, or hypocrisy that prevents us from serving others with sincerity. However, imitating Christ in service requires total surrender and burying all bitterness of the heart. The Lord gives us opportunities every day to discover areas in our Christian life where we can serve others, and we need wisdom from on high to do so. Let us imitate the example of our Savior and serve others with humility and love. Read more...

Comments:

Enrique Meneses Muñoz: Great opportunity to serve others my LORD gives me, praise my GOD, amen.
Francisco Diaz S. Padre: Great teaching.- How many current pastors and leaders would dare to wash the feet of some of their parishioners, the most humble? They do not do it; there are many who are arrogant and vain.- Thank you, Pastor Faustino.
María Esther Sanchez: Thank you for nurturing my spirit may God continue to bless you
GustavoMartinez Afanador: The first thing is to start serving, you have to demonstrate humility and nobility to the Lord. Because Jesus did not demonstrate it with his testimony and it was a teaching. Blessings.
Alba Rita Fuentes Ramos: Glory to God that is the stature that the perfect baron teaches us to be humble will always lead us to exaltation and consider others as superior to ourselves.
