When Jesus asked, “What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?” (Mark 9:33), the disciples kept silent. It was because they had argued with one another over who was the greatest. Jesus had taught about His death and resurrection, but the disciples were measuring who was great and who was small among themselves. Even into the steps of following Jesus, a heart that seeks to exalt itself can enter. Our craving does not disappear by itself just because we say that we are doing the Lord’s work.
