©️2021 Gloria M. Chang
For who is greater: the one seated at table or the one who serves? Is it not the one seated at table? I am among you as the one who serves.
Luke 22:27
The Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve,
and to give his life as a ransom for many.
Traditional Chinese Translation
《四旬期， 第13天》
人子來，不是要受人的服事，乃是要服事人，
並且要捨命，作多人的贖價。
Help me to serve like you, O Lord.
I may not be able to bend down
to wash the feet of others;
Yet I can perform loving actions
with humility for my sisters and brothers.
Help me to let go of ego power
as I willingly wear your thorny crown.
Bending down or standing up,
Help us, Lord, to drink your cup.
