“After super Jesus removed his outer garment, poured water into a basin and washed the disciples feet, when Jesus had finished he asked “do you understand what I have done to you?”

This Maundy Thursday as we look back in remembrance of Jesus’ final day with his disciples and recount the bible stories of the last super, the gospel of John tells us that after super Jesus removed his outer garment, poured water into a basin and washed the disciples feet, when Jesus had finished he asked “do you understand what I have done to you?” This question strikes a deep note for me as I try to contemplate how those first disciples may have felt at this act of servitude but also what it means for me today as a Christian. I came to faith three years ago and new instantly on giving my life to Christ that although I looked the same, the me that I once new had been changed in some way. I had received something untouchable within my soul that would be the building blocks from which I would begin a new life. I had been forgiven, my sins washed away. My prayer today is that my heart would be a prism through which the light of Jesus would shine and my life would be lived in remembrance of all that he has done for me.
