Today is a celebration of Christ Jesus' gift of service to mankind. It is easy to recognize and celebrate the 'gift' that was given, but I want to focus on the sacrifice of service that was offered willingly and selflessly. Being in ones service, or in servitude, is an act of lowering one's own status to exist below the status, needs, desires, or necessities of the one being served. Christ served us. He lowered himself to a status below us, mankind, to redeem us to sit at the right hand of His Father. How many of us would even consider offering one of our own favorite items to someone else just to make their life better? Thank You Jesus! Thank you God the Father! And Happy Easter everyone!
