Scriptures:
Mark 10:35-45
Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him.
"Teacher," they said, "we want you to do for us whatever we
ask." "What do you want me to
do for you?" he asked. They
replied, "Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your
glory." "You don't know what
you are asking," Jesus said. "Can you drink the cup I drink or be
baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?"
"We can," they answered.
Jesus said to them, "You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the
baptism I am baptized with, but to sit
at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for
whom they have been prepared."
When the ten heard about this, they
became indignant with James and John.
Jesus called them together and said,
"You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it
over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.
Not so with you. Instead, whoever
wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first
must be slave of all. 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."
Matthew 7:7
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will
find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
