John 13:5 - and began to wash his disciples’ feet...

Right before the Lord goes and washes the disciples feet the gospel of John says something that stands out and puts what Christ is doing into perspective, ‘Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God. (John 12:3)’ From there Christ goes to wash his disciples feet (v. 5). To think that such humility comes from such a powerful God. Christ showed what it meant to share the gospel, he taught the disciples how to go out and proclaim salvation, and he also taught humility. Part of sharing God’s word is being willing to get on your knees to wash people's feet. Those of us who believe in Christ, we have been given the Holy Spirit - meaning that God dwells in us. We have a great power within us but with this power comes humility and sacrifice. Christ showed how to make disciples. We are all called in the great commission to go and make disciples. If you are discipling others, remember it is not just about giving wise advice, but it is also about serving them and humbling yourself.
