Love each other as Jesus did

John 13:1-11
Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world, the Father had put all thing under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God, who was going to betray him.
Jesus washes feet of disciples who having loved.
Jesus replied peter,"Unless I wash you, you have no part with me."
"A person who has had a bath needs only to wash his feet; his whole body is clean."
Why?
Jesus is at supper with the Twelve for the last time. They have been arguing over who is greatest.
Jesus reply is to strip and wash their dusty feet. The master willingly makes himself their slave. Here is the role-model for his followers.
Jesus has all power, but he like to be a slave to serve his disciples, this is the love of Jesus.
We walk in this world, even we have been baptized, our feet might dusty, so Christian should clean out feet among each others.
Jesus knew everything, he knew the time, the power he has, his mission and who will betray him. He accepted the command of the Lord.
To be part with Jesus is establish a relationship with Jesus, accept his blood and body and believe in him, let Jesus works upon us to transform my life.
How?
Jesus loves me, how marvelous and how wonderful he is. Praise be to the Lord, blessing is he who accept Jesus as his master.
