What does it say?
Jesus washed his disciples’ feet and predicted both Judas’s betrayal and Peter's denial.
What does it mean?
Washing the feet of those who entered a house fell to the servant with the lowest position. Apparently, no servants were present as Jesus and the disciples met in secret. Rather than humbly volunteering for the task, the disciples had been disagreeing about which of them was the greatest (Luke 22:24). Jesus, motivated by perfect love and with full awareness of His greatness, “took a towel” and modeled humility as a servant, even to the ones who would shortly deny and betray Him. No longer were His disciples simply to “love your neighbor as yourself.” Jesus commanded them to “love … as I have loved you.”
How should I respond?
Are you in a silent competition to be greater than a co-worker, fellow student, or sibling? Or has someone betrayed your trust? As followers of Christ, we are commanded to follow His example and approach that person with the humility of a servant. Is your heart full of pride and hurt or with love and humility? The world will take notice of Christ only to the extent that we demonstrate His love in our reactions. How will you show His love today? Remember, true greatness is the willingness to humbly serve others.
