Serve with Love

John 13:1-5

“Should” is a word that feels heavy to us who are steeped in post-Freudian culture that says life is about us. It is also a heavy word for Christians who don’t have the “infrastructure” of the inner self built up to sustain its weight. “You should be good,” “you should love,” and “you should serve,” get superimposed on us in ways we can’t bear. It is a word we must be careful with, and it must be set upon the proper foundation – Jesus Christ.
