Jesus, I wish you would let me wash your feet,
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
since it was by walking around in me that you soiled them.
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
I wish you would give me the task of wiping the stains from your feet,
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
since it was my behavior that put them there.
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
But where can I get the running water I need to wash your feet?
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
If I have no running water, at least I have tears.
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
Let me wash your feet with my tears,
Maundy ThursdayApril 21, 2011
and wash myself at the same time.
Ambrose of Milan
