Humble Servant

Are Christians today perceived as people who serve or as people who forcefully try to rule?

This question was asked during my bible study a few weeks ago, and I have thought about it many times since. In fact, our pastor spoke on a similar subject today and I can't help but to share it with you because I believe that all Christians and non-Christians alike, need to hear it.
But first, let me ask this question:
Did Jesus live his life as a ruler or a servant?
Mark 10:45
For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.
You see, Jesus made a ministry out of serving people. And you might be surprised to find that it wasn't the rich and the religious "elites", but the poor, widowed, orphaned, sick, prostitutes and tax collectors. He served the people who were considered outcasts and unworthy, and he did it through humility, sacrifice and love.
How good are we at loving people? I'm not talking about loving our family members, best friends or those that we share similar beliefs with, but rather the people who, in order to love them, would require us to step out of our comfort zone.
Are we doing a better job of judging people than we are loving them? Maybe it's time we start living the example that Jesus set; humble ourselves, sacrifice our time and serve the people who are considered the least among us.
