This is where greatness lies

Wednesday of the 8th Week in Ordinary Time

You probably actually spend most of the time serving others even if you’re not thinking about it… by working to provide for your family, caring for children and grandchildren, volunteering. We do that as a normal part of our life. 

If we want to be great, we must serve the needs of others. This is what Jesus says in today’s Gospel. The son of man came not to be serve, but to serve.
