The answer is: Washed their feet

John 13:5

Before the monumental events of the Last Supper, Jesus took an unusual and profoundly humble action—He washed the feet of His disciples. This act of foot washing, recorded in John 13:5, stands out as a stunning example of servant leadership. Picture the scene: Jesus, knowing that He was about to face the crucifixion, took on the role of a servant in a culture where foot washing was reserved for the lowliest of servants.

This passage not only showcases His humility but also flips expectations on their head. The disciples were likely puzzled, caught between their reverence for Him as their teacher and their surprise at seeing Him kneeling before them. Jesus teaches that greatness in the Kingdom of God is measured by servitude. This reinforces an idea present throughout scripture—that the first shall be last, and the last first (Matthew 20:16).

Moreover, did you know that in many Eastern cultures, washing someone's feet symbolizes hospitality? It goes deeper, forming a covenant of love and care. Interestingly, this isn't just a lesson for the disciples; it paves the way for how we approach each other today. Engaging in our individual communities with humility and grace echoes the spirit of this teaching.

So, the next time you perform an act of service—big or small—remember that a simple gesture can carry profound meaning, binding us to one another in a shared mission of love.
