Helen has been devotions with Vuku leaders via WhatsApp during the lockdown. It is so great to meet them one by one in person again. Ironically, we grew closer through this crisis.
“and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.””
Matthew 20:27-28
So is Jesus my servant?
Yes, but not in the sense you might think.
He is our servant because his life was spent for our salvation.
He didn’t need to work to become the king, God or a teacher. He already was.
That’s why he didn’t need to be served by anyone.
That is why our salvation was given to us for free, so our lives could be spent also to bring salvation to others instead of living to prove how good or worthy we are.
You are already a child of God by his grace.
