Matthew 20:28

"Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,
and to give his life as a ransom for many."


Heavenly Father,

Jesus was the most selfless life that ever walked this earth,
He was born to die for our sins from the moment of his birth.

He knew this his whole time here and it was the cause he dedicated his life,
And he loved us all graciously and taught us to keep from sin and strife.

Never did he expect or want for anyone to treat him like a king,
He served everyone equally like he was a slave, and yet he carried no sin.

He did not put himself first even when he knew his time was done,
And that is because he was here to save us, he was the Holy One.

It is 2000 years since his Holy feet walked upon this place,
And he is the most famous and talked about person in history,
this man with the loving and gracious face.

He demonstrated how beauty is not skin deep but comes from the heart,
And through the love of God and his fellow man his mission he did not depart.

He was here to reconcile heaven and earth after the fall of Adam and Eve,
And to free us from Satan's bonds and teach us not to be deceived.

His whole life was dedicated to saving each and every one of us,
And never was it a burden to him, he did not whinge or kick up a fuss.

I pray that in my life I learn to be selfless just like your Holy Son,
And always put my brothers and sisters first, just like Jesus had done.

God Bless,
Gina
