He Would Not Avoid Smelly Feet? (3 of 4)
Series: What Would Jesus NOT Do??

John 13:1-5
Every year Fortune magazine produces a list of the worst jobs in America. Fortune bases their findings on four factors: from environment, to income, to outlook, and to stress.
Would you like to know what the worst jobs are? Fortune lists 200, but the Top Ten worst jobs in the United States are (with annual salaries in brackets):
10. A firefighter ($45,970).
9. A taxi driver ($23,210).
8. Advertising sales ($47,890).
7. Retail sales ($21,670).
6. Pest control ($30,660).
5. Enlisted military personnel ($27,936).
4. Disc Jockey ($29,010).
3. Broadcaster ($37,200).
2. Logging ($35,160).
1. Newspaper reporter ($37,200).
Does that list surprise you? Fortune didn't ask for my opinion, but they left the worst job out! The worst job is collecting garbage. I posted this picture on Instagram (tonythomas1972) on December 27. Look at that poor, freezing garbage collector riding on the back of a truck in -7 degree temperature! I can't remember the windchill but here's the note I posted: ''It's -7 and I'm counting my blessings for the warm ride in my Ford Ranger while others earn every penny!''
Lots of folks work necessary, but less-than-glamorous jobs. Kind of like changing baby diapers! Nobody volunteers for that job, right? As the second eldest child of eight, changing diapers was part of the job description for being an older brother in our house - and nobody celebrated potty-training more than yours truly!
Because Woodland Heights is such an outstanding church family, I'm gonna guess that most of our fathers shared baby duties with their wives. That includes changing diapers, feeding, clean up, Doctor's visits, and potty-training.
Remember that Life Verse we covered on February 11?
Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.
Wives, let me ask a couple of questions (don't raise yo ...
