Lesson In Humility
By Mark Flippo
John 13:14-“If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.”
It was the custom of a servant to wash the feet of visitors when they came into your home! They wore sandles on dusty dirt roads. Jesus had to teach them a lesson in humility! This was the best way to accomplish that lesson. They did not understand at first. Finally Jesus explained it to them. Then they said well not only my feet but my head also. Never think to much of yourself. Humility is the standard that Jesus will judge you by! Would you pass His test? Will you wash dirty stinky feet?
