Becoming a Client of the King

<p>Ignorance seeks leadership, power, and glory, says a modern commentator. A couple centuries back, Matthew Henry wrote that we are idiots when we ask for the glory of wearing a crown instead of for grace to bear a cross. Jesus said we need to forget about trying to be in charge and focus on being servants or, better, slaves, to others instead.</p><p>What do you think you rule over?
