He laid aside His outer garments, and taking a towel, tied it around His waist. Then He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around Him." John 13:3-5 (ESV)</i> Jesus' understanding related to who He was (the Son of God and heir of all things) compelled Him to serve the disciples. That just never ceases to amaze me... “Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that He had come from God and was going back to God, rose from supper.

That just never ceases to amaze me…

If you willingly lay down your life to save the life of someone else, whether good or bad, and that person saw you do that, their heart would melt and their continence would change. Even if we lay down our time for another person, our money or our interests for the sake of someone else, overtime it will pierce the heart of stone, and, no doubtingly show the sacrificing individual more of the heart of Jesus. I am feeling incredibly convicted now. the only way I'll find this life I'm looking for is by losing the one I'm clinging to now.
