In today’s climate of turmoil and uncertainty, threatening and incapacitating feelings run rampant. Yet the God who created your emotions has also given you everything you need to navigate them. The Bible paints relatable and resonant portraits of women and men struggling with grief, anger, guilt, and despair—and provides divine wisdom for transforming your emotional trials into spiritual triumphs.
Scripture: John 13:1-13
There is a greater message in the washing of the disciples feet by Jesus than we first see. Jesus knows He has the power over everything and everybody. Instead of demanding that His needs be met He prepares Himself to wash His disciples dirty, grimy, smelly feet. To find joy and happiness that comes from having that surrendered heart and that servant spirit, three steps must be taken. Find out what they are.
"When Jesus washed the disciples' feet, He was not primarily dealing with feet; He was illustrating a person's heart." --Dr. Merritt
