Dear Enrique Meneses Muñoz, thank you for your beautiful comment. It is wonderful to recognize and thank our Lord for the opportunity to serve others. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, imitating Christ in service is an act of total dedication that helps us reflect God's love towards others. As the verse of John 13:5 says, Jesus taught us the example of humility and love by washing the feet of his disciples. May God continue to bless you in your service and may you always have the wisdom to see life from God's perspective. God bless you!

With this beautiful gesture of humility that our Lord Jesus Christ gives us is more than enough to follow in his footsteps; He has shown us that if his hand can be done, everything is possible for those who believe and obey. God bless you

: Let us take off the cloak of our arrogance and pride and be useful to our neighbor with humility, with respect and above all with love as spiritual beings.- Can we do it? just as Jesus Christ stripped himself of his authority and paid tribute to his disciples.- Thank you Dr.Faustino

As you mention, it is important that we shed our mantle of haughtiness and pride in order to serve our neighbor with humility, respect, and love. By following the example of Jesus Christ, who humbled himself and paid tribute to his disciples by washing their feet, we can learn to be truly useful as spiritual beings. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas points out in his devotional, imitating Christ in service is an act of total dedication and allows God's love to prevail over our personal benefits. May the Lord guide and strengthen you on this path of service and humility. Thanks for your comment!
Patricia Pinzón: Thank you for this wonderful teaching of service being imitators of our LORD. When we serve from the heart with humility, without any interest in receiving in return as our LORD did here on earth, our heart and soul can experience the peace, love and joy of CHRIST made flesh. Serving others is serving the LORD, this being the least act we can do in gratitude to our REDEEMER who gave his life in service on the cross of Calvary for us. Blessings for all!

I totally agree with you that when we serve from the heart, with humility and without expecting anything in return, we can experience the peace, love and joy of Christ. As you well mention, serving others is serving the Lord himself, and it is an act of gratitude towards our Redeemer, who gave up his life on the cross for us. By following the example of Jesus, we can imitate his loving service and be instruments of blessing to those around us. May the Lord continue to guide you on this beautiful path of service and fill you with blessings. Thanks for sharing your reflection!
