Mark 12:4 (KJV)
And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
This parable speaks of:
• A servant
• Another servant
• Again… another servant
• And many others (I take it, servants)
I’m reminded of Hebrews 11:32-38 (KJV):
And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of…Who through faith …Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.… and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;(Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
And my next thought is: Let’s be another servant.
It is true that the people of this world are often unfriendly and unreceptive to our heavenly Father’s message. Still, He is our Father, and we are called to be His servants. We never know when one of us might get the message across to someone who will receive it.
Be another servant.

What’s one way you can serve God today, even in the face of difficulty?
Take a moment to pray and ask God to show you where He’s calling you to serve. Then, act on that calling.
