(1 Cor. 14:6–19; Matt. 20:17–28) Christianity fully satisfies our desire for primacy, but how? Completely opposite to the way it is used in the world. Do you want to be the first? Be a slave to everyone, that is, be last before everyone, and this is just as important as it is essential to customize your life and your character according to the example of the Lord Christ. The Lord says: “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many” (Matthew 20:28). The Lord serves, even washes the feet of his disciples: therefore, there is no need to be ashamed to serve anyone. How and with what you can serve; There are opportunities at every step: feed the hungry, clothe the naked, bring the strange into the house, visit the sick and even go after him and do not refuse anyone who requires any other help. And serve not only the body, but also the soul of another: enlighten, give advice, point out a good book, comfort, strengthen. And the word is a powerful means of helping; the soul comes out in it and, combining with another, gives it strength. You might be interested in:
