The President and a Tractor

 snapshot from south Florida yesterday

"Then He began to wash the disciples' feet, drying them with the towel He had around Him." (John 13:5)


We have a good friend that's president of a large, multi-campus college in south Florida. Before Hurricane Irma's landfall, he asked his staff to rent tractors with buckets, fork lifts, and box blades for debris removal and told them to put his name down as one of the tractor drivers.

After the Passover meal on the night before His crucifixion, Jesus washed His disciples' feet and said, "I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done for you," in other words: love and serve others.

Beloved, let's follow the example of Jesus and a college president today. Serve another and meet a need.
