He had just finished. The bath water was still hot. I was too tired... it was pajamas and bed. I climbed into bed with sore, achy feet. "Come, let me wash your feet, rub the ache away." Why do we always resist. "No" I said, knowing he was more tired that I and feeling immediately like Simon Peter... 'Lord, are You going to wash my feet?'
He asked again. I went. Why do I resist? If you are a doer this part is not always easy, letting others also do - but necessary. Hot water and a good rub... wonderful!
'I have set you an example that you should do as I have done'
'Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them'
~ John 13
