1. It is in our very nature to be served. Everywhere we go there are people serving and those being served? But have you asked yourself lately which one you are? Are you serving others or are you the one being served? Mark 9:35/Galatians 5:13
2. It is a rule of Greatness, that great people do what great people do? Likewise, great servants learn from other great servants. Look at some character qualities of great servants.
- Joseph (Gen. 39:1-7)
- Rahab (Joshua 2:1)
- Mordecai (Esther 2:5-7)
- The Prostitute (Luke 7:36-48)
3. Several years ago the Make-a-Wish foundation began to make the wishes of terminally ill patients come true, whether it was Disney World or making the opening pitch of a baseball game. I often wander if I had three hours to live and could do anything, what would I do. Jesus faced this, He knew his death was approaching and hours before his death He picked up a towel and washed his disciples feet. This was his last moments with them before his death and He served them. If the Lord returns tomorrow what will you be doing? Will He find you with a towel in hand serving? Mat. 24:45-51
