THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL PAGE TWO Section B Thursday, March 22, 1951 REV. ROBERT H. HARPER The Jerusalem Road Lesson: Mark 10: 35-15 Memory Selection: Mark 10: 43 WHEN JAMES AND JOHN came, seeking chief places in the kingdom when Jesus should sit on the throne cf his glory, and had vowed their willingness and ability to drink of the cup that Jesus should drink, he told them that it was fiot his to give such high place but it wou'.d be given to those for whom it had been prepared. When the other disciples heard the Tselfish and ambitious request of James and John as they tried to put ore "over them." they were moved with indignation against the two brethren. And they resent ed ths effort of the two, not be cause it was . wrong, but because that effort would supersede the 10. On their very way to Jerusalem the disciples were still evidently un der the delusion that Jesus would set up a great earthly kingdom, and they ail alike desired to have chief places in it. Jesus to!d that true greatness comes not in securing and in hav ing but in being and in doing. High places are given those who become great servants of their fellows. And they who render sacrificial service have the example of Jesus before them. '"For the son of man came not to tc ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." Sa may we find in Jesus, who gave himself freely for men. our example of fine and unselfish service in all the opportunities that come to us.
