Jesus washes feet;
challenges us to acts of humanity.
His form - a servant!
Gives a new commandment:
love one another,
just as I have loved you.
Abba, Father,
O my Father,
if possible,
take this cup . . .
from me:
yet . . .
not as I,
but as thou wilt.
This cup of salvation,
this blood,
this deed of redemption
this sacrament -
I remember.
I rejoice.
