A big shout out to everyone who came early or stayed late to help make Sunday morning happen! There's just nothing like working together for the Kingdom. Something in me gets really excited to see so many serving Jesus, following His example and washing the feet of others. And if I'm getting excited about something at 6am that's saying a lot!!!
In John 13, it says Jesus put off his robe and took up a towel as he began washing the disciples feet. Robes are the stuff we hide behind. It's our title, position, dignity. But Jesus was willing to put aside this and take up the towel. What an image...God with a towel, washing the feet of humanity. It think our Lord gets excited when His followers take up the towel. When we are willing to come out from behind whatever it is that we are comfortable in and have used to dress ourselves up. When we lay aside the robe and wash feet.
