Description: Jesus, though the rightful king, comes as God's humble Servant empowered by the Spirit, and he refuses to discard 'bruised reeds' and 'smoldering wicks'; people sidelined by sin, suffering, or age; because he values them for the glory they will display in eternity, not their present usefulness.
