THE GREATNESS QUESTION (LUKE 9:46–48)
The disciples had argued privately, they thought, but Christ knew their thoughts. We may never have argued with someone openly about our greatness, but Christ knows our thoughts, and the attitudes that inhabit them. Our society thrives on ambition, and if we’re not extremely discerning, we bring our ambitions into the church. Our biggest hindrance to greatness may be the desire to be great.
Christ was on the road to greatness, but His road would take Him through betrayal, rejection, suffering, and death. Philippians 2:6–8.
