Contemplative Bible Reading

Luke 17:10 (New Living Translation)

In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’

Jesus is telling us something here. The glory of doing what Jesus asks me to do? There is none. That’s my duty.

And, I am an unworthy servant. I am not worthy to be a servant of Jesus. It is His gift to allow me to serve and have a duty.

That is pretty humbling stuff there that Jesus says. Can I accept that He is Jesus and I am me? God, please help me in my unbelief.
