A Noble Motivation
At dawn on the first day, Mary Magdalene and another woman named Mary went to look at the tomb.
MATTHEW 28:1
It isn’t hope that leads [Mary and Mary Magdalene] up the mountain to the tomb. It is duty. Naked devotion. They expect nothing in return. What could Jesus give? What could a dead man offer? The two women are not climbing the mountain to receive, they are going to the tomb to give. Period.
There is no motivation more noble. . . . Service prompted by duty. This is the call of discipleship.
