HIGH FIVE! (run around that graveyard before work)
Luke 22:24-30 captures a powerful lesson from Jesus about true greatness. In this passage, the disciples are arguing over who among them is the greatest. Jesus responds by flipping their expectations—he teaches that greatness in God’s kingdom is not about power or status, but about humility and service.
He contrasts worldly leadership, where rulers exercise authority over others, with the kind of leadership he embodies—one of servanthood. He tells them, “I am among you as one who serves,” emphasizing that the greatest should be like the youngest, and the leader should be like one who serves.
Jesus also reassures his disciples that their faithfulness will be rewarded. He promises them a place in his kingdom, where they will eat and drink at his table and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
This passage challenges conventional ideas of leadership and encourages a life of selflessness, humility, and service. It’s a reminder that true greatness comes not from seeking power, but from lifting others up.
What are your thoughts on this passage? Does it resonate with you?
I wonder why more people don’t run towards faith… There truly are countless ways to encourage and inspire humanity to do good in this world. The more you do good, it seems like the more no one cares…
DO IT ANYWAYS.
LET’S RUN AROUND THAT GRAVEYARD AND THEN GO2 WORK. (mow that yard tomorrow)
