The Story - Chapter 26 - The Hour of Darkness

If one ponders the words of today's reading there is much to grab hold of and hold close to our hearts.  Jesus is using the last hours of His life to teach His dear friends some of the most important lessons of their lives.

John 13:15 (NIV)
"I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you." 

Jesus has just finished washing the feet of His Disciples, teaching by example the importance to serve one another.  If you have ever experienced foot-washing you know how humbling it is; you understand the love involved in this simple act.  Jesus is showing us that no one is too good, no one is above humbling themselves to serve another.

How is Jesus calling you to serve your brother or sister?  Something to pray about for sure.  I am going to keep it short and to the point this week so we can consider one thought and see where God leads.
