Washing of Feet
"I guess we all learn that as we live this life, it's just the people that have touched you or whom you've touched that makes all the difference in the world, doesn't it? Nothing else really matters in the end."Somehow those words came upon me last Friday morning when I was writing an email, and it was definitely blog material. If one asks, what is my dream? I would say, to touch as many lives and hearts as possible before I leave this earth. Because in the end, nothing else really matters - people remember you for what you did for them, not what you owned. People remember the person that you are. It definitely are the little things that matter. :)
On another note, my weekend alone at home was pretty good. Was fortunate to have 2 'bodyguards'..haha, my colleagues who accompanied me on Saturday - even to buy makeup (guys, told ya u can't help me out in that area!! :P)... thanks heaps anyway Seow & Jon!! :) Also had a girly night watching DVDs.. a great change from going out all the time ;)
And because it is so important to touch people's lives, even those who had hurt you in the past.. an important lesson learnt is to let it go, be humble & forgive. Pride would only swallow us whole, and what greater example is given than Jesus washing his disciples' feet:
"After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him." John 13:5
"Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. 15 I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. 16 I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. 17 Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them." John 13:14
