Every servant of God is called to serve:
Luke 10:36
“Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”
Matthew 20:27-28
27 nd whoever wants to be first must be your slave—
28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
John 13:14
Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.
Galatians 6:2
Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:10
therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Psalm 119:30
I have chosen the way of truth; I have set my heart on your laws.
Thoughts on Today's Verse....
Jesus reminded us to "pick up your cross daily and follow" him. The way of truth is a daily choice. To not seek to intentionally put him at the center of our life, the top priority in all of our decisions, is to slip a little bit further away from the life he calls us to lead. Any decision made without consciously seeking to please him is a decision to place him at the periphery of our lives. So let's set our heart on him. Let's choose his way, the way of truth, the way of life, and set our hearts on doing his will.
