The Narrow Path
The grime, filth, hurt, pain, sin and rebellion around me aren't obstacles to the path of Jesus they are the path of Jesus.
The filth and pain is an opportunity to extend God's kingdom through love, humility, and compassionate service.
When He saw sin He saw an opportunity to redeem,
when He saw disease He saw opportunity to heel,
and when He saw dirty feet He saw an opportunity to get on His knees and wash the dust off.
Jn 13:13 You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am. 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. 15 I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you. 16 I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message. 17 Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them.
