It was just before the Passover Feast, Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love. The evening meal was being served, and the devil had already prompted Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?" Jesus replied, "You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand." "No," said Peter, "You shall never wash my feet." Jesus answered, "Unless I wash you, you have no part with me." "Then, Lord." Simon Peter replied, "not just my feet but my hands and my head as well." Jesus answered, "A person who has had a bath needs only to wash his feet; his whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you." For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean. When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. "Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them. "You call me Teacher and Lord, and rightfully so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them."

Is this amazing or what? God, Lord of the heavens strips himself of all His authority to become like a servant. He washes his disciples' feet! Back in that day, this was the dirtiest thing to. Yet, God himself was willing to serve us. This is the extent of His love for us. He loves us in spite of our sinful ways. We are all imperfect, yet He forgives us each and every day when we ask for it. Then He tells us to be a light. To go out and do the same thing to our brothers. I know at least in my life, I don't do enough of loving. I need to take care of others and go out and love them even though they might be dirty. 

Love is the best way to witness, so go out and love on others because God was willing to do it, so we should too. The best way to change the world isn't by doing everything yourself, but to give the gift of love to someone around you.
