Celebrating God God's People Offer Praise Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5)    Glorifying God Mark 10:42-45 The Message 41-45 When the other ten heard of this conversation, they lost their tempers with James and John. Jesus got them together to settle things down. “You’ve observed how godless rulers throw their weight around,” he said, “and when people get a little power, how quickly it goes to their heads. It’s not going to be that way with you. Whoever wants to be great must become a servant. Whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave. That is what the Son of Man has done: He came to serve, not to be served—and then to give away his life in exchange for many who are held, hostage.” For Reflection Paradox, the great mystery.  In the Kingdom of God, the unexpected rules. In the Kingdom of God, commonly accepted truth is no truth at all. In the Kingdom of God, the most revered people are servants. In the Kindom of God, bluster is babble, and humility is wisdom. Pray Pray and serve the Lord humbly. Pray and be blessed by God and those who your witness uplifts. Forward to a friend
