CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS: August 2010

He who receives whomever I send receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.

   So when He had washed their feet, taken his garments, and sat down again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

   You called Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am.

   If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

   For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

   Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him.

   If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

   I do not speak concerning all of you, I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scriptures may be fulfilled, 'He who eats bread with Me has lifted up his heel against me.'

   Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He.

   Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me."
                                            The Gospel of John - chapter 13 verses 12 - 20
