Are you being served?

We finish Luke ch22-24 with the familiar story of betrayal, crux, and resurrection. Before this happens in ch22, Jesus is talking with His disciples at the last supper. He pointedly discuss what it means to serve, rather than being served. He demonstrates this by washing the disciples feet. Amazing humility! His point is more than just doing acts of kindness, it is one of attitude. He is demonstrating how to put others first. He is giving us that example to follow. So, how are we putting others first? How do we love others through our attitudes? Acts of kindness are important, but we cannot do them and keep score. True service to others begins with a loving attitude and desire to put others first, regardless of what we "get" in return!
