Radically Happy

Today I will take my turn at bat
To share in Christ’s suffering
That I may reveal His glory
In me

The bitter cup
Is the better cup
When with You we sup

So we butter up
To be batter up
Til it’s bottoms up!

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came over and spoke to him [Jesus]
“Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do us a favor.”
“What is your request?” he asked.
They replied, “When you sit on your glorious throne, we want to sit in places of honor next to you, one on your right and the other on your left.
But Jesus said to them,
“You don’t know what you are asking
Are you able to drink from the bitter cup of suffering I am about to drink?
Are you able to be baptized with the baptism of suffering I must be baptized with?”‬‬
