Throughout Jesus’ ministry he taught his disciples and followers to be more about serving others. The disciples didn’t always understand and once when they were arguing about who would be first among them, Jesus sat down with them and said to them, “Whoever wants to be first must be last of all and servant of all.” Mark 9:35 Because we too often have a negative image of serving in mind we become leery of serving but Jesus didn’t call us to be slaves but to serve out of love.
