Drinking the Cup Mt. 20-17-28
Who wouldn’t love having dinner with the pope?
Sitting right next to him and clinking glasses and saying please pass the bread!
How awesome that would be.
How much more awesome it would be to be sitting next to Jesus in the heavenly banquet feast in the kingdom of heaven!
We can, as long as we are willing to drink of his cup here on earth.
Maybe not the cup of martyrdom as James and John did.
Just the cup of daily crosses and suffering.
And we drink the Cup of Christ
When we daily accept those crosses and sufferings
With Patience, Forgiveness and Love.
And then Christ will save us a seat at His heavenly banquet.
