—Matthew 20:17-28
by: Dorothy Noel.
Servanthood is often maligned in today’s society. Yet this is exactly what Christ called His followers to in verses 26-28. How can servanthood make us great? Servanthood reflects Christ’s sacrifice for us. It demonstrates the value of God’s creation in the way we take care of it and one another. By serving, we acknowledge our own fallibility and choose to support another in theirs. We serve because our future is assured in Christ, so there is no need to scramble for power. Assurance of Christ’s redemption frees us from our worries in order to support one another.
