Reason no. 970...

Jesus is counter-cultural. He is the king. Instead of him having an expectation that society will serve him, he was the one who got down on his knees to wash people's feet. He is the King who serves. He shows us that nothing is too below him. He is the one who I follow, but does my life represent him? If it did, surely there would be such an eagerness to serve because that is what Jesus it like. He served with his whole life. He did not compartmentalise his life into sections where serving can happen -  no it over spilled into every area. Let my heart catch hold of Jesus's heart for people so that I might serve in the fraction of the way that he serves the people around him. Reason no. 970 :)
