Working For Jesus

Note: Hope you saw all three slices of bread yesterday.  We should be on track for a single slice today.      

In this morning's brief passage from the Gospel of Mark, 9:38-40, Jesus expands the thinking of the complaining disciples to include the person who was driving out demons in his name, but who was not "one of us."  Jesus defends him by saying that if he is using his name, he cannot be against Jesus, therefore must be for him. As followers of Jesus, we might think, in somewhat elitist terms, that we might have an edge on people or groups who are not part of ours.  The important question, is, however, for whom are we working, for whom are they working?  Let's hope and pray that we are all working for Jesus.
