Be Ambitious to Serve Others
In these passages, Jesus directly addresses the subject of ambition. He taught that good ambition is a virtue. It is not wrong to desire to be great or to make a significant contribution. Jesus never rebuked the disciples' ambition; instead, He channeled it, which is exactly what He wants to do for you. Jesus wants to steer your energy, motive, and efforts in the right direction.
The world thinks in terms of power, fame, wealth, position, and influence. Sadly, most people are caught up in worldly ambition, seeking more and more of what the world has to offer. In fact, the majority of people tend to judge the success of others by their...
- wealth
- homes or vehicles
- jobs or titles
- influence or authority
- social standing
The Lord's view of ambition stands in direct contrast to the world's view. You become great by doing what Christ says, that is, you do not seek greatness for your own sake but rather for the sake of serving others. Godly ambition seeks to serve rather than be served. It looks for people to help and for ways to help them. Ultimately, the way to greatness is through humble service. If you wish to be great, then this needs to be your driving ambition. No matter what your position is or how much authority you have, you are still called to serve. This is true greatness!
