Jesus Washes His Disciple's Feet
It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had
come for Him to leave this world and go to the Father.
Having loved his own who were in the world, He now showed them
the full extent of his love. (John 13:1)
Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under His power,
and that He had come from God and was returning to God;
so He got up from the meal, took off His outer clothing, and wrapped
a towel around His waist. After that He poured water into a basin
and began to wash his disciple's feet, drying them with the towel
that was wrapped around Him. (v.3-5)
When He had finished washing their feet, He put on His clothes
and returned to His place.
"Do you understand what I have done for you?" He asked them.
"You call me 'teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what
I Am. Now that I, your Lord and teacher, have washed your feet,
you also should wash one another's feet, I have set you an example
that you should do as I have done for you.
I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messanger
geater than the one who sent him.
Now that you know all these things you will be blessed if you them.
(v.12-17)

May you all have a wonderful time of fellowship as you worship God,
when you assemble together at your church. Greet anoyne with a smile, a hug,
or a kiss, whatever your customs are when you greet your people.
Encourage one another and lift them up with the LOVE OF CHRIST.
Remeber everytime you come together at the house of worship.
Think about all these things. And may God Bless you All.
