- You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am.
- And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet.
- I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message.
- I tell you the truth, anyone who welcomes my messenger is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming the Father who sent me.
- So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.
- Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.
My child, pay attention to what I say.
Listen carefully to my words.
Don’t lose sight of them.
Let them penetrate deep into your heart. You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.Next verse!With image
