In this Sunday's Gospel, Jesus teaches His disciples another way of greatness,
and that this by becoming a servant. It is a totally different way path, unknown and perhaps unacceptable to the disciples. That is why they were reserving for seats in the Kingdom of Heaven. Their idea of greatness is being seated in places of honor. But Jesus' idea, his mind (Phil 2:5) is different. His way, His mind, is that of a servant. It is:
- the way of suffering (first reading),
- the way of sympathy with the weak (second reading), and
- the way of serving others (gospel)
Are you of the same mind...the same way as Christ?
