A Hard One

July 9, 2009 2

There’s one more verse on my list.

One I don’t live out very well.

Jesus says this in Mark 10:43: For the greatest among you is servant of all.

Wow.

I think of greatness in terms of tennis victories, church accomplishments, professional accolades, and kids who make me proud.

Jesus thinks of it in terms of washing feet, serving dinner, and hauling garbage.

For those times and ways I fall short, I sure am glad we have a lot of “great” people at Good Shepherd.

What verse do you love . . . but have a hard time following?

    Ephesians 4:2
    Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

    I have a hard time doing even one of those things for any length of time but I still love the verse.

    Amie
