A Noble Motivation

A Noble Motivation

At dawn on the first day, Mary Magdalene and another woman named Mary went to look at the tomb.

Matthew 28:1

It isn’t hope that leads [Mary and Mary Magdalene] up the mountain to the tomb. It is duty. Naked devotion. They expect nothing in return. What could Jesus give? What could a dead man offer? The two women are not climbing the mountain to receive, they are going to the tomb to give. Period.

There is no motivation more noble. . . .

Service prompted by duty. This is the call of discipleship.
