Jesus Christ came to serve. He let a woman in Samaria interrupt his rest, a woman in adultery
interrupt his sermon, a woman with a disease interrupt his plans, and one
with remorse interrupt his meal. Though none of the apostles washed his feet, he washed theirs.
Though none of the soldiers at the cross begged for mercy, he
extended it. And though his
followers skedaddled like scared rabbits on Thursday, he came searching
for them on Easter Sunday. The
resurrected King ascended to heaven only after he’d spent forty days
with his friends—teaching them, encouraging them…serving them. Why? It’s what he came to
do. He came to serve. From: Cure
