Called For A Purpose

John 13:14 "If I then,your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet".
We are servants of the Lord, no matter what title or position we hold in God's Church, we are but servants to do His will and carry out His commands. The position you hold or the title you give yourself does not free you from the work in which we have been called to do. We are the servants of the Lord, and are to do His will.
 
Jesus tells his disciples that if He being Lord and Master wash their feet, then they to have to wash feet. Now he is not telling us that we must literally go out and wash someones dirty feet, but we who know the Lord are responsible to share Him with a Lost world. We are responsible to look after and care for those who are less fortunate. See somewhere the message got lost. Leadership looks to be served, when we have been called to serve. Jesus the son of God took on the position of a servant that God's will be done, and we are to follow His example. He came to serve, He washed feet, He fed the people, He gave freely of that which He had to all who had need. He sacrificed that others might have. The Son of God became the son of man that the sons of man might become the Sons of God.
 
The work of all who were called is to lead a lost world to believe that Jesus Christ is Lord. We have been called to lead all in darkness to Jesus the light of the world
