    We are looking at the heart of a servant, which Jesus said should be our goal if we want to be great in the kingdom of God. To have such a heart will cost and goes against everything we’re taught. It conflicts with our self-centeredness and personal desires. But in the end, there’s a reward.

People in America spend thousands and thousands of dollars on face lifts, behind lifts, and everything in between.
