CHOOSE SERVANTHOOD OVER POWER

 

Humanity has an inbuilt foolishness and disarray. The desire to make good a visual statement of one's achievements, wealth or status seems to have been  hardwired into human beings. The palatial buildings that come up everywhere try to outcompete the other in size, ostentatiousness and vanity. It extends to business establishments, educational institutions, hospitals and even places of worship.

They are erected as a demonstration of someone's wealth and ambition. No doubt they are all aesthetically marvellous.

They suggest that the story of babel is as fresh today as it ever had been.

The sole antidote is Jesus Christ.

He is the one, who chose servanthood over power.

Jesus touches the sick, washes dirty feet and steps over the barriers of race and language. He opens wide his arms to embrace all people.

Unfortunately, many who follow Jesus today are after assets and power alone. They don't know they are derailing the true mission of Jesus Christ.
