It may seem backwards, but in the real world, power lies with those who serve. When you serve those lower than yourself, you serve the one true God of Israel. Matthew 20:16 "So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen." Many called but many are too self-righteous and lack faith. Serve as though you are serving Christ himself. Matthew 25:40 "...whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. Have the faith of a child. Matthew 18:2-4 "He called a little child to him and placed the child among them. And he said: 'Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.'" Not blind obedience, but innocent faith.
