Day 28: Called To Be Different

“But among you it will be different. Those who are the greatest among you should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant.” 

Luke: 22:26 
 
This passage is so different from what the world tells us to do, it is so against the rules of our world, and its values. But this passage is from the Bible, and it reminds us that we are called to be different! What king would come and serve other people? Jesus. He was, He is, and He will be the king, but he came humbly to this earth to show us what it means to love. It is a great reminder that following Jesus is a decision that we each have to make. Do I really want to serve others? Do I really want to serve the Lord? It is the greatest decision we can ever make - to follow Jesus and to try to be like Him. Why would I serve others? Because Jesus did it, because He loves them. Serving other people is an act of obedience and service to the Lord.
