Luke 22:24-27  “A dispute also arose among them, 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 which is the greater, one who sits at table, or one who serves? Is it not the one who sits at table? But I am among you as one who serves.”   RSV

Jesus came among us as one who serves.  This moves us to love Him.  Interestingly, His servant attitude also makes us want to obey Him and honor Him as Lord.
