A PSALM OF A SERVANT Lord I have lived for the lure of achievement. I have followed the scent of success. But when I have reached all my goals there ’ s an ache in my soul and the sense that I ’ ve settled for less. I am tired of the tasks of pursuing all the paths of my self - centered plans.

For when I live for myself and my personal wealth
I am deaf to all love demands. For when you quiet my mind You show me how blind I am to the things that please you. Make me willing to learn of your greatness, to lead with a basin and towel. I relinquish control of this ambitious soul. I surrender and in worship bow.
Read John 13:12 - 15. Christ set the example for us of caring. He took a basin and towel and washed disciples feet, challenging them to go and do likewise. Reflect on acts of love we can show to others, some of them may be as humbling as washing feet. Jesus set the example in love which we can emulate. This Valentine ’ s Day season, go out of the way to serve others, especially surprising some who would not expect this act of kindness.
