“You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord’ and rightly so. …
I, your Teacher and Lord have washed your feet.
I have set you an example"

Knowing that the Father had put
all things under his power
and that he had come from God and
was returning to God,
he began to wash his disciples feet,
drying them …:

Authority
and humble servant,
wisdom
and compassion,
all power
and gentleness.

(John 13:1-17)

A story easily and conveniently forgotten. Like "turn the other cheeck". No one really does that.

Keep well Thiannon! Tom

Thank you, Tom. In this 'year of elections' we need to pray for people of integrity to be willing to serve in leadership, who can be humble though firm in principles and leadership and above all seeking the good of the people. Rhiannon

Spot on Rahiannon, and Peter didn't at first understand.

Thank you. True. Peter came to realise how much he needed to receive from his Lord! Rhiannon

He was (to start with)  the most fallible of the disciples, maybe because he was hot headed; but he did become a great Saint.
