John 13:1-38
What God said to me – Servanthood is an attitude that demonstrates love and humility. You can serve and yet not be a servant. In order to please Me – to be like Me – you must be a servant – not just a server. When you serve with an attitude of resentment, you’re just a server and not a servant. You must learn not to think of service as a duty, but as an opportunity to be like Me, to show My love to others and to please Me. Don’t long for or expect thanks and appreciation from those you serve. Look to Me. Long to please Me. Sacrifice and servanthood are expressions of the extent of your love, not just for the ones you are serving, but for Me. Serve faithfully with an attitude of love and someday you will hear me say, “Well done my good and faithful servant – well done.”
