Mark 10:32-45
Jesus’ third prediction of his impending suffering and death is misunderstood by two of his closest followers. James and John are concerned about their status. Jesus uses their misunderstanding as an opportunity to reiterate the difference between God’s kingdom and the world.
You challenge me constantly, always with good reason. I often misunderstand what it meant to be a servant leader. It is not my needs but the needs of others that must come first. St. Philip Neri, pray for us.
