John 13:1-20 Jesus washes His disciples' feet. This is an amazing picture of Gods grace and mercy. Here He is teaching us to humble ourselves and to serve those He puts in our life. Not just people who are loving us and are on our side but our enemies. He knew what Judas was going to do but He still washed his feet. If Christ can wash Judas's feet, then we can wash any bodies feet. Peter didn't want Jesus to wash his feet because he knew he was unworthy for Jesus to touch his feet. Yet Jesus told him, if I don't wash you, you have no share with me. Peter's reply says it all, then wash all of me! Are you asking God to wash all of you? If so are you willing to wash others feet out of the grace God has shown you? Jesus said, For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you. This must be the way in which we minister to others. We must die to ourselves, lift up our cross, and follow Him. All for the Glory of the One who sends us! May Jesus be exalted in our lives today! God bless
