UpWords · 02/11/2013 | Today's MP3 Jesus said to His disciples: "If I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash each other's feet" (John 13:14). It means to kneel as Jesus knelt, touching the grimy parts of the people we're stuck with; washing away their unkindnesses with kindness. Or as Paul wrote in Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind and loving to each other, and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ." "But Max," you're saying, "I've done nothing wrong. I'm not the one who cheated. I'm not the one who lied. I'm not the guilty party here." Perhaps you aren't. But neither was Jesus. Don't we all think we are right? Hence we wash each other's feet. Relationships don't survive because the guilty are punished but because the innocent are merciful! Only one was worthy of having his feet washed. The one worthy of being served, served others.
