I love the signs of summer! Some of my favorites are that it is still light outside at 9:30 pm. Birds are singing by 5 am. Strawberries, corn and blueberries are more abundant. And we end every day exhausted, happy and with extremely dirty feet!
Although we might not have a full-fledged bath every night of summer, I do take the time to clean face, feet and hands before climbing into the sheets.
Last night as I washed my kids’ feet, I made a decision to make that time each night a time where I can take a posture of servanthood for my kids. Jesus washed the feet of His disciples in the upper room. I can picture Him smiling as the others looked at each other in amazement. I will look forward to our feet washing time each night and will use the time to pray for my kids to know that the Jesus who washed the feet of His friends loves them and knows them by name.
Happy Summer!
