the towel of the servant

the towel of the servant,
a symbol of Christ,
the mantle we wear
our yoke in this life

service our calling,
even to those who hurt us,
loving as Christ loves
as He loves us

the towel of the servant,
the rugged cross,
service and sacrifice
the measure of His life

a life lesson in this moment,
in the dust on that towel,
the road we must travel
what we will face

sharing love and mercy,
compassion complete,
dying on our cross
washing Judas’ feet.
