I am thankful for the choice to show love and respect for others and have the opportunity to serve in and model this. Jesus did not demonstrate any entitlement. Even though He was the King of Kings he chose to wash each of the disciples feet. The disciple Peter tried to get Him to stop, but Jesus replied it was necessary for him to do this task. It was a lowly job in that time period, but He did not feel too good to serve in this way. By washing his disciples feet He was modeling what it means to love and respect others. Think about that today? Would you wash someone else's feet? A homeless person on the street? Someone of a different race or culture? This requires us to get down on our knees.... be vulnerable....demonstrate humility, and most of all Be Love without entitlement, prejudice or expecting any reciprocation.
