Do you know what I wanted to become when I was a little boy? I wanted to become a bus conductor.
At that time, the Pantranco buses were open on one side, and I admired how the bus conductor would go from the rear to the front and vice versa, giving out tickets, collecting fares, hanging on to the open side while the bus was in motion. He is also the guy helping the passengers with their pieces of luggage. The driver did the driving, but it was the conductor who did all the serving.
Little did I know that I would become some kind of a "conductor" someday - a priest who conducts people to God and vice versa, and a person who does a lot of serving.
A MOMENT WITH THE LORD
Lord, while I live, let me be your conductor, by serving you and your people. Amen.
A MOMENT WITH THE WORD
"Be like the Son of Man who has come, not to be served but to serve and to give His life to redeem many." Matthew 20:28
