  7 But as you abound in everything, in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that you also abound in this grace.

  8 I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.

  9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

  10 I give a judgment in this: for this is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.

  11 But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.

  12 For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.

  13 For this is not that others may be eased and you distressed,

  14 but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack; that there may be equality.

  15 As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”

- Gospel

  Mark 3:6–12

  6 The Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

  7 Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,

  8 from Jerusalem, from Idumaea, beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

  9 He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn’t press on him.

  10 For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.

  11 The unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, “You are the Son of God!”

  12 He sternly warned them that they should not make him known.
