About This Quote

Many Christians are like servants with “shoes.” This quote is a great reminder to those who have a tendency to put God above themselves. They feel they must serve their Lord and Savior even in the most humble of ways. For example, many Christians will not accept a gift from a friend because it might be considered an insult. The idea is that they have been given clothes to wear and they should not take them off in order to accept something from another person. In other words, when we are in the presence of someone we know has been blessed by our Lord and Savior we should not be taking things from them or asking for things of them.
