------- NOVEMBER 12, 2013 [ TUES.] --- MY PARKING ATTENDANT ----- We are unprofitable servants ; we have done what we were obliged to do. ---- Luke 17 : 10 Your unworthy servant.... I was struck with these words as the Archbishop of Port Moresby was saying the prayer at a Mass referr- ing to himself being Bishop of the Diocese. Maybe this is a reg- ular prayer but this time, it rang differently in my ear. On another occasion, the good Archbishop, who arrived a min- ute ahead of me at a Tallares Convent, guided me w/ hand sig- nals as I parked my car. This is too much ! I mumbled to myself. The Archbishop as my parking attendant ? Considering his stature, the Arhbishops humility & readiness to serve his flock touched me deeply. As a servant - leader, its natural to delegate the dirty jobs to the low - ranking servants. But not with this man of GOD. He really lives up to the title of servant . He lives up to what JESUS said, If anyone serves me, he must follow me [ JOHN 12 : 26 ]. Just like our LORD, HE came not to be served but to serve [ MATT. 20 : 28 ] --- Danny Tariman ---
