The Character of Jesus - A SERVANT

Read Mark 10:42-45.

"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." (v. 45)

Jesus, of all people, had the right to be served here on earth, but His priority was to serve. In God's economy / government / worldview, service equals greatness.

I need to see myself as a servant to others. I am not just a father / husband / missionary. I must see myself in this way and seek ways to serve others every day.
