Lent Meditations - Serve - Jesus Washes the Disciples' Feet: Imaginative Meditation w/Tony
This week, we invite you to enter into the intimacy and power of the scene in which Jesus washes the feet of his disciples, as depicted in the Gospel of John. Use your imagination to create an experience of this scene. Use your senses. Hear the sounds of supper shared in the upper room. Pass the plate of bread. Drink from your wine glass. And as you immerse into the evening in the close confines of the upper room, you witness something profound - the man who has been called Messiah and King, the man who has raised the dead and healed the sick and the lame, the man whom demons flee from - Jesus - fills a basin with water, ties a towel around his waist, takes a knee before each disciple in the room, and proceeds to wash the dirt and dust with his own hands. What would it be like to be in that room? Jesus calls us to follow his lead - to wash one another's feet, to serve as He served, to love as He loved. So, who's feet might you wash? How might this action speak to how you lead? How you use power, authority, or status?
