In the Ugandan villages people walk miles to get anywhere. The widows walk several hours to get to Church. They keep a steady, slow pace, placing one foot in front of the other. it is very hot and dusty, with only red earth tracks to follow.No rushing, no car or bicycle. I have learned so much from them. The only way we can acheive anything in our Christian walk is to take one step at a time. It is very simple just doing the next thing you need to do. And that next step may seem very ordinary and mundane, with no honour or glory attached to it. But when you do it with Jesus it is transformed into some thing blessed.
It was only a plain bowl and towel that Jesus took to wash the disciples feet. Only servants work; just a cleaning job! But Oh the love that He put into it. And the genuine humility of His attitude. The proud do not do the work of a servant! Be faithful in the small things and God will give you greater things to do. Whatever you do, do it for the Lord. He appreciates all that you do for Him, and sees your faithfulness, your willing attitude, and above all your loving actions. John 2:5.
