Evening: Psalm 44; Mark 15:40-47
Many
human beings follow the Way of Jesus without knowing him. Some know him
but may feel they need to distance themselves from his more
enthusiastic disciples. I am drawn to these other disciples who don’t
make it into the main story … people like the “many other women” who
went up to Jerusalem with Jesus, or Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the
ruling council, who buried Jesus quietly. There’s something deeply
attractive to me about the faithful, humble obscurity of these other
disciples. I think I want to be like them.
