Dear Servant,
What does it mean to be my servant? My son (who took on the form of a servant, even though he was The Son) said it so well when teaching his disciples. He told them that in my kingdom the first shall be last and if you want to be the greatest in my kingdom, you must be servant of all. He explained how this world’s system is built on positions of authority, power and prestige, but my kingdom is built on humility, service and sacrifice. Not only did he teach these truths, he modeled them for his disciples and the rest of the world to see.
Will you be a servant? Will you set aside the rights of being a son or daughter and instead put on the humility of a servant? Will you sacrifice comfort, peace, ease, power and prestige to be my servant in difficult places? Will the day’s journey find you not in lavish palaces, but in shelters with the poor and needy where you serve them instead of expecting them to serve you?
A Savior who Sacrificed for you, I AM
