We all want leadership. We all desire to be at the top, recognized, and in the know. It is a constant inward battle for an outward expression that will be recognized by many. Jesus Christ came and modeled something far different. He fled from the scenes of the masses when they were going to crown Him King. He rebuked the enemy at the pinnacle of temptation. Jesus spoke about being last. He challenged people to die to themselves, to walk with someone for two miles instead of one.
The God of the Universe came to us with a towel. He asked for His disciple's feet, washing them, loving them. His call? Well it is to "Follow Him..." Who will go? Who will be last? We all desire greatness and fame, but Christ is worth far more. Lead! But Serve!
