“But it shall not be so among you. Rather,
whoever wishes to be great among you will
be your servant; whoever wishes to be first
among you will be the slave of all. For the
Son of Man did not come to be served but
to serve and to give his life as a ransom for
many.” - Mk 10:43-45
29th Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Whoever wishes to be great
among you will be your
servant." In the wake of
James and John's vanity,
Jesus offers this directive.
These two apostles had been
thinking in terms of
prominence, glory, and worldly honor. They wanted
their association with Jesus to lead to public
recognition and respect as they took their places at his
right and left. But Jesus put them in their place.
As was typical of so many of his teachings, Jesus upset
the status quo. He told his followers that, although
"great ones make their authority over them felt ... it
shall not be so among you." Then, he put forward this
clear image of the servant leader: "Whoever wishes to
be first among you will be the slave of all." As
followers of Christ, this instruction applies to us as
well. We are called to the humility of service that seeks
neither personal glory nor gain. We are called to use
what authority we may have in the world for the
benefit of our brothers and sisters, not for the sake of
stroking our own egos. It's easy to pat ourselves on the
back for the good works that we do--to think that we
are superior Christians, that others owe us a debt of
gratitude, or that our names should be engraved on a
public placard in some noteworthy hall. But Jesus calls
us to a different standard--the one he himself
exemplified through his life of service.
At the same time, today's Gospel gives us cause to
meditate upon our association with Jesus and what we
hope to get out of it. Why are we Christian? Are we
only after the glory of heaven? Are we afraid to
publicly profess our
faith when it might
hurt our reputation?
Or are we in this for
the love of the Lord,
who came into this
world "to serve and
to give his life as a
ransom" for us?
