He said to her, \u201cWhat do you wish?\u201d She answered him, \u201cCommand that these two sons of mine sit, one at your right and the other at your left, in your Kingdom.\u201d Jesus said in reply, \u201cYou do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the chalice that I am going to drink?\u201d They said to him, \u201cWe can.\u201d He replied, \u201cMy chalice you will indeed drink, but to sit at my right and at my left, this is not mine to give but is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.\u201d When the ten heard this, they became indignant at the two brothers. But Jesus summoned them and said, \u201cYou know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and the great ones make their authority over them felt. But it shall not be so among you. Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave. Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Jesus, you are all powerful and yet perfectly humble. Please open my mind to hear the Word and let it convert my pride into humility.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<li><strong>\u201cMy Kingdom Is Not Here\u201d: <\/strong>The mother of James and John, the sons of Zebedee, did not understand what Jesus\u2019 Kingdom would be like. Many of his disciples also misunderstood. They thought that Jesus would come to destroy the Romans\u2019 political power and reign as king. But, as Jesus told Pontius Pilate during the Passion, \u201cMy kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not here\u201d (Jn 18:36). Jesus\u2019 Kingdom is so much more than earthly power. He holds the keys to the infinite universe! And he has invited us to join him in heaven one day. Thy Kingdom come, Lord Jesus.\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Driven for Greatness: <\/strong>Society tells us to strive to be successful and hold positions of power. The world recognizes success as having a great career and plenty of money to live comfortably. But God\u2019s economy is different, even paradoxical. Jesus told the people, \u201cThe greatest among you must be your servant. Whoever exalts himself will be humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted\u201d (Mt 23:11-12). Spiritual director and author Fr. Jacque Philippe wrote, \u201cHumility is truth. I am what I am in God\u2019s eyes: a poor child who possesses absolutely nothing, who receives everything, infinitely loved and totally free.\u201d When our sense of self is firmly rooted in the truth\u2014that we are beloved children of God\u2014we do not need to puff ourselves up or rely on anything worldly to make us \u201cgreat.\u201d\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jesus, Our Servant?:<\/strong> Jesus told us, \u201cThe Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve.\u201d He gave us a vivid illustration of what he meant when he washed the disciples\u2019 feet at the Last Supper. Yet, all of his life was, in fact, an act of service. He was born for us; lived as a human being for our sakes; suffered, died, and was buried; instituted the Church; and is preparing a place for us in heaven one day (cf. Jn 14:2-3). What will we do for him today?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord Jesus, I cannot do away with my pride on my own. Please walk with me so that I might learn to walk humbly with you. You washed the Apostles\u2019 feet on Holy Thursday (cf. Jn 13:1-17). Thank you for showing us how we are to care for our brothers and sisters by choosing the most humble jobs and doing them for the glory of God. Help me to always make the humble choice, and so imitate you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will choose a humble job without complaint or seeking to be recognized for it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>For Further Reflection: <\/strong>Prayerfully read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usccb.org\/bible\/philippians\/2\">Philippians 2:1-11<\/a> and reflect on how Jesus\u2019 humble obedience and service are connected to his glorification and power.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carey Boyzuck is a wife, mother, freelance writer, and a lay member of Regnum Christi.
