Here is today’s Bible reading:  Leviticus 25:47-27:13; Mark 10:32-52; Psalm 45:1-17; Proverbs 10:22.

Mark 10:35 (NIV)
Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”

Sounds terrible, doesn’t it?  Yet, I treat God that way–as if He exists to do my will rather than I exist to do His will.  As if He is to serve me rather than me serve Him.  May I get these roles straight once and for all.
