Accepting help-- not easy, but a good lesson to learn

Holy Thursday.

We should recall the act of service Jesus did for the disciples, and that he enjoined them --and us-- to do the same. Washing of feet is not just an act of cleanliness; it's humbling work, it's caring for others' comfort, it's a metaphor for how to live one's life. 

Do I make the effort to help others through their daily challenges and tasks? 

Do I seek out ways to use the gifts and talents that I have been give in service to the greater good? 

Do I accept help when it is offered? 

That last one is the hardest sometimes. Yet, to acknowledge that we need help, and to accept it humbly, is just what the disciples has to learn, too. 

Things to think about. Have a good day, friends.
