But Jesus

Gently pointed out

Whose needs

We really need to be

More focused on instead

When He said,

"Whoever

Desires to become great

Among you

Shall be your servant.

And whoever of you

Desires to be first

Shall be slave of all.

For even the Son of Man

Did not come

To be served,

But to serve,

And to give His life

A ransom for many."Mark 10:43-45

By the grace of God,

We, too,

Can learn to be

A faithful waiter,

And we, too,

Can learn to feed the needs

Of one another

First,

And thereby

Emulate our lowly

Servant/Savior,

Who Himself,

Always sought

To feed the needs

Of others first.Matthew 11:29Philippians 2:5-8

For only then,

Can we ever start

To comprehend

Why the Master

Of the Universe

Will one day condescend

To set aside His royal robes

And regal crown,

And stoop

To serve the needs

Of all His loyal servants

Whom He Himself

Has seated

At His supper table.

"Blessed

Are those servants

Whom the Master,

When He comes,

Will find watching.

Assuredly,

I say to you
