Here's my thoughts on John 13:

• Jesus shows the full extent of his love by washing his disciples' feet...I really think this is the heart of the first part of John 13...Jesus gave his disciples an example of service and humility...I can't tell you how much God has been teaching me about humility this year, and I love it!



• I both love and am fearful of Jesus question to Peter, "Will you really lay your life down for me?" It's almost as if he's saying, "you might want to rethink that one. O he who speaks too quickly".

How about you...what are your thoughts?
