​The Story

The Towel

Author Unknown

At first glance, one looks at a kitchen towel and thinks “Wow! A towel! I needed a new one.” or “Wow! A towel! The old ones are getting stained and worn.” But have we ever stopped to think that for years, even thousands of years, the towel has not just been used in the kitchen, but for a variety of reasons?

Take for example, the mother who wipes the tears of a little child to soothe the physical and emotional hurt. The physician who binds the wound of a bleeding patient. The woman in her home wiping her hands as she moves from task to task. The weary traveler who wipes his sweated brow. Some other examples would be the manager of a boxer who “throws in the towel” to save the life of his protege, or the young man wiping the grease off his hands as he fixes the old car.

Notwithstanding all of the above examples, perhaps the most significant use of the towel was about 2000 years ago when our loving Savior took an ordinary towel in His hands and dried the feet of His disciples only hours before His crucifixion. Sure, the towel is a handy item with a myriad of uses, but it also has deep symbolic meaning when seen in the hands of the Savior during a work of kindness for his fellow men.

So take this towel, knowing it is given with love, and do works of goodness with it, as the Savior worked goodness with His so many year ago.

Now all you have to do is find some super cute Christmas towels and print off the story below to say Merry Christmas to your friends and acquaintances! From tea towels to terry towels, any dish towel will work for great gifts.

In years past I usually try to head to Target or Walmart or other stores to grab items like towels on clearance on the day after Christmas. This is a great way to save money, and you can prep these in advance. Print off the story and attach to the towels anytime throughout the year to prepare for the gift giving season.
