Fifth Sunday of Lent

Jesus Christ on His Throne

Mark 10:32-45
the Gospel for the Fifth Sunday of Lent

Jesus is sitting on His Throne in Heaven because   He is the Son of God.

One day Jesus was walking down the road with James and John.  They asked Jesus for a favor. They asked Him to give them a seat next to His throne in Heaven because they wanted to be great.  Jesus told them that if they really wanted to be great they had to do good things for other people,  just like He does. 

Jesus wants us to love God very much.  We show that we love Him when we do good things for other people.
