Quote: “Today Jesus tells his disciples to wash one another’s feet, wash the day’s leftover grim away. Some plain old dirt falls into the basin. Some sins of everyday living rinse off as well. And by the power of Jesus in his disciples then and now we can wash each other’s hearts in forgiveness and love. As instruments of God’s grace, we can free one another to begin anew. Then we can go out from out familiar circle of friends and share Christ’s love with the world. Prayer: Gracious God, help me love and forgive others as Jesus taught and has done for me. In his name. Amen.”
