Invitation! Invitation!! Invitation!!!

It is all about love.

It all began on Sunday, October 21, her birthday, and it became the most beautiful day in my life. After all, this was what she'd been working toward all last night, to make herself happy on her birthday.  

When we got upstairs, everybody gathered around the table, and there was no seat meant for the King and Queen; the parents of the birthday celebrant. The Queen's regalia should have been laid on the table before her Majesty at the King's left hand but this was never done, maybe it was because of their daughter’s birthday. 

There must have been nearly a hundred people present, and most of them were poor people from other kingdoms who had come to utilize the vast resources in King’s palace. No one carried the regalia of the king and queen, and the King acted as a servant at the great birthday banquet, but regardless of that he had always been doing that.

In fact, I was somewhat shocked at the way the king listened to the poor and served them. In our society today, leaders have opted for power just to be served, but this king, cares for serving his people.

The gospel reading of today made it explicit that, “whoever would be great among you, must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you, must be slave of all.” 

Jesus is a pure example of this, in Phil 2:6, though he was in the of God, Jesus did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped. He emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in likeness of men. 

Hence, this is an invitation to Love “Service”.

This is an invitation to “Serve one another”

I hereby invite everyone to this call for service. It is our duty as leaders to first be servants. God calls every one of us to a positions of leadership in our homes, communities, churches, and ultimately the world.

Happy SUNDAY.
