And he would not have any one know it; for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, \u201cThe Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he will rise.\u201d But they did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to ask him. And they came to Caper\u2019na-um; and when he was in the house he asked them, \u201cWhat were you discussing on the way?\u201d But they were silent; for on the way they had discussed with one another who was the greatest. And he sat down and called the twelve; and he said to them, \u201cIf any one would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.\u201d And he took a child, and put him in the midst of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them, \u201cWhoever receives one such child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.\u201d John said to him, \u201cTeacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he was not following us.\u201d But Jesus said, \u201cDo not forbid him; for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon after to speak evil of me. For he that is not against us is for us. For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ, will by no means lose his reward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2013Mark 9:30-41<\/p><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Morning, welcome to Monday!
