Scripture

Mark 10:42-45    (BSFL*)

Translation

NIV

What God said to me

Be a servant to Me and to others.

What I said to God

Okay, I get that You want me to be a servant. When You continue to mention this to me, I get that I am not where I need to be on this particular issue. On the one hand, I am longing for time in my own life that is not constrained by the demands of other people and events. On the other hand, I am longing to be totally constrained by You. Change my heart. Help me to become more like You.
