Lent: A Journey to Hope in Uncertain TimesНамуна

Jesus set an example of servanthood during His ministry in many ways, but one of the most dramatic examples was when He washed the disciples’ feet. The job of washing feet was for the lowest servants. Jesus took on this humble role because His identity came from who His Father said He was. Likewise, our identity should come from us agreeing with what God says about us. This frees us to share hope through acts of service.

What task or chore have you or others been avoiding? Follow Jesus’ model of service and complete that task today, letting it shape your identity as God’s child.
