A little humor! It's all in the punctuation: An English professor wrote the words, "Woman without her man is nothing" on the blackboard and directed his students to punctuate it correctly. The men wrote: "Woman, without her man, is nothing." The women wrote: "Woman: Without her, man is nothing."

The Book of Wisdom foretells Christ’s suffering and death as Jesus describes to His disciples in St. Mark’s Gospel. Both the readings from St. James and St. Mark warn us against false ambition and seeking rank while appearing to serve the Lord. Jesus teaches us that true discipleship requires the first to be last and servants to all. What is our motivation in serving the Lord?
