What if We Served?

What is something that someone has done to serve you that has impacted your life? I remember serving as a counselor at a high school week of camp and we reenacted the stages of the cross which includes scenes from the night before Jesus was crucified. The scene where I portrayed Jesus was where He washed the disciples’ feet. I wasn’t sure how they would respond. I wasn’t sure how I would respond. But as I moved from student to student to wash their feet, most were nervous. But as I spoke the words of Jesus to them while I washed their feet, a change began to occur. And not just in them. Serving changes not just those being served, but those serving. Steve Sjogren said, “God's love must be communicated from person to person, not just from page to person…Deeds of love allow us to sneak into the hearts of those we serve.”  This week we are going to be looking at how to live that out in real life.
