NJ EAST CENTRAL SOUTH SECTION
Royal Rangers Roundtable
Feb. 3, 2020

Opening Prayer – Skip Sliker, Sr.

Devotion – Tom Buck

Servant leadership – Jesus modeled it, serving those following Him…he fed them, in the upper room He lowered Himself and washed feet. John 13:8, 14-15 – Jesus modeled servant leadership by washing their feet. The true heart of Jesus…He wasn’t interested in gathering followers and showing His power. The lowest position of a slave was to wash guests’ feet. It was common to have dusty, dirty feet. The job was lowly and humiliating, but Jesus willingly took that position. Jesus came to serve, not to be served. Principle: Do we look for ways to serve, or to be served? Temptation is to be pampered, where we should be looking for opportunities to bless others. Do we look for the best seats? Are we willing to do the jobs nobody else wants to do?
