Can you imagine the Upper Room? A feast spread before Jesus and His disciples. A feeling of thanksgiving for the Passover lingers across the aroma-filled room. After the feast was eaten, it can be presumed that everyone was feeling satisfied with their stomach full. Jesus humbly stood up from his seat, poured water into a basin, and quietly began to wash his disciples feet. Such an intimate service filled with His love. Imagine what it felt like: God in all his glory, holding your foot, gently washing it as if He was a lowly servant. The honor and the indescribable love that must have been felt by both. Jesus simply requested, “Do onto others.”
Tomorrow is Maundy Thursday, a commemoration of the Last Supper in the Upper Room. What a wonderful opportunity for you and your family to “Do onto others.” Many churches have special services just for Maundy Thursday. However, you can have a small memorable ceremony at home as well…
Begin with a Passover meal:

Or have another traditional meal from Germany, Hungary, and Austria.
After the meal, wash each other’s feet. Stress to everyone the importance of serving one another. Then afterwards, plan a service project for your family to do..
God Bless…
