So ask yourself, ‘ Could my desire to improve or increase my service to Jehovah be tainted by a wish for more personal recognition or authority, as seemed to have been the case when James and John made their request to Jesus? ’
Tāpēc padomāsim: vai es vēlos uzlabot vai paplašināt savu kalpošanu ar vistīrākajiem motīviem, vai arī mani virza alkas pēc atzinības vai varas, kā tas acīmredzot notika toreiz, kad Jēkabs un Jānis gribēja izlūgties no Jēzus pagodinošu stāvokli?
