Acts 13:13-25; Psalm 89; John 13:16-20

Humble service

Being a humble servant of others means being a humble servant of Jesus Christ who is the master missionary. Humility in missionary service brings the gospel to life in society. Pride has no place in service. It betrays Jesus Christ in the smallest and most numerous of ways. It can rob our service of the presence of the Word. Jesus Christ chooses the humble ones for his mission, these little ones do not rebel proudly against him.
