Daily CLC Prayer verse

Today’s reading is Luke 22:1-30
“A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves.”

‭‭Luke‬ ‭22:24-27‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because Jesus says, “Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.” We hear this all the time and it seems noble to say it, but who really lives it. I thought about Coach Bill Curry when I read this. He is a leader of men and has many adorning fans. However, he has chosen to serve the disadvantaged and the slighted in many ways everyday. Coach Curry serves the Lord and seeks opportunities to serve Him more. Are we serving where God wants us? We know the joy that comes when we serve. Please pray that we and our friends serve those around us with the nudges that God gives us today. Please pray for John and Brack as they are building their group.
