Broken Record
I am realizing something. Blogging through the gospels, makes me sound like a broken record, as the same themes come up over and over and over again in the life of Jesus. There are a number of things that Jesus wants to get through to us, and sometimes it takes us hearing it numerous times before it sticks.
So hear it is in Mark 9. "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all."
Following Jesus means to put everyone above yourself, and serve.

I just finished Matthew, and that statement came up at least 3 times that I can remember. Maybe He wants us to understand something. It's certianly relevant for today. Who are the people that we put in charge, that we let lead us? The humble? The meek? The servants?
