Daily Scripture Readings Lent Day 46 (Holy Saturday)

Lent Day 46 - Holy Saturday.  The Passover began on sundown the day before.  The people, the crowd and disciples rested from their labor.  However, the Roman guards were standing watch to make sure none of Jesus' disciples would come and take his body, this was the fear of the Jewish leaders.  So on this Holy Saturday take the time to reflect on these 46 total days including Sundays.  Use this day as the day of anticipation.  I believe Jesus' disciples were all wondering if what he said was true.  I believe they sat and waited anxiously.  Let us wait with that same anticipation.  The real question is Do you believe?

Thank you to our Muslim brothers and sisters who  joined us on our Lenten Journey and in return let us join them during the month of Ramadan at sundown on June 17, 2015 for 30 days.

Daily Scripture Readings Lent 2015 Day 44 (Holy Week)

Lent Day 44 (Holy Week) - As we continue with Jesus' journey.  We turn our attention to the last supper.  Jesus realized this was his final hours of spending time with his disciples.  The hint in the text is when he tells Judas go quickly and do what you must do. This is after they ate and Jesus washed their feet.  The reality of this event is that  no matter how close some people are to you there will be those who will set you up.  Instead of getting angry or made just tell them go quickly and do what you must.

Daily Scripture Readings Lent 2015 - Day 43 (Holy Week)

Lent Day 43 (Holy Week) - It's midweek as we remember Jesus' journey to the cross.  During this midweek, Jesus had some quiet time.  He went to a place to be refueled for the journey before him was not going to get any easier.  The Pharisees and Scribes have been looking for a way to kill him.  Imagine taking your last final journey and knowing what's in front of you will be brutal and nasty.  This is how life can treat us day to day.  We just need a place of peace to prepare ourselves for the days ahead of us.
