Memorisation Monday

Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”

Mark 9:35

There is a deep desire in me to be served. How good would it be? We look at the lives of the super-rich. We imagine they worry about nothing. People to cook, to clean, to provide for their every need.

But then I remember Jesus. The most powerful being beyond the universe. He didn’t come to serve but to be served. What a beautiful thing. He made Himself last, though He was first. Maybe that’s what I should do too.

Tips:

• Say the passage out loud 10 times in a row.
• Say it once before you go to sleep.
• Say it once more when you wake up.

Pray:

• Praise the Father that He sent His Son to be our servant. 
• Give thanks for Jesus who came not to serve but to be served and die for our sins. 
• Ask God for His Holy Spirit to help you and others be a servant.
