Jeremiah 6:16

Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he . . . . poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. . . . When Jesus had finished washing their feet; he put on his clothes and returned to his place.  "Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them.  "You call me 'Teacher" and "Lord," and rightly so, for that is what I am.  Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.  I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. . . .  now that you know these things, thou will be blessed if you do them."

Numbers 14:8

Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers -- not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.

1 Peter 5:2 - 4

We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith.  If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently.

Romans 12:6 - 8

When one rules over men in righteousness, when he rules in the fear of God, he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings the grass from the earth.

2 Samuel 23:3 - 4

Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.
