经文 · 和合本 1919 / KJV（公版） · Scripture · CUV 1919 / KJV (public domain)
耶稣叫他们来对他们说、你们知道、外邦人有尊为君王的、治理他们．有大臣操权管束他们。 只是在你们中间、不是这样．你们中间、谁愿为大、就必作你们的用人． 在你们中间、谁愿为首、就必作众人的仆人。 因为人子来、并不是要受人的服事、乃是要服事人、并且要舍命、作多人的赎价。
English
But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

马可福音这段对话发生在门徒讨论地位的语境中。耶稣以服事重新解释伟大，也以自己的使命说明这条道路。 我准备去食物银行做义工，愿意认真听见邻舍真实的需要。帮助有需要的人时，也要保护他们的尊严；服务并不赋予我们评判的资格。今天可以从一个小而具体的回应开始：了解食物银行需求，遵守其隐私与服务安排。

This conversation in Mark concerns the disciples' desire for status. Jesus redefines greatness through service and illustrates the path through his own mission. I am preparing to volunteer at a food bank and want to hear neighbors' real needs. Serving people in need includes protecting dignity. Assistance gives no right to judge. Begin with a small concrete response today: Learn the food bank's needs and respect its privacy practices.

天父，我准备去食物银行做义工，愿意认真听见邻舍真实的需要。求你在这个处境中陪伴我，使我不必隐藏真实的感受。帮助有需要的人时，也要保护他们的尊严；服务并不赋予我们评判的资格。请赐我分辨与勇气，让我今天愿意这样回应：了解食物银行需求，遵守其隐私与服务安排。当结果还未明朗时，帮助我耐心尽自己的责任，也接受可信之人的支持。愿我的言语与行动显出爱，把无法掌握的部分交托给你。奉耶稣的名，阿们。
