Jesus said,
"The greatest among you must
behave as if he were the one who serves"
Luke
22:24-30
All faithful followers in the way
receive their mandate from the Father:
The more He asks of them the greater
the need for their humility. And
they receive not only their commission
and direction but also the resources
for successfully fulfilling all
that is required as they continue
faithful to His express command.
First must come both the desire
and will to do the Father's will.
As singleness of mind and heart
become the condition of the soul
such becomes the ethos of the heart
and mind for the faithfully committed.
And humility becomes their second
nature both towards the Father and
towards their fellow men.
And he whom the Father calls to
lead his fellow men in any way first
serves the Father by obeying Him.
As I served and obeyed the Father
in My Incarnate days by discovering
His will for His beloved children
so must it be for you.
