Daily Scripture Readings Lent 2015 - Day 42 (Holy Week)

Lent Day 42 (Holy Week) - Celebrating Holy Week has it high and low moments.  As we continue with Jesus' journey to the cross we must take a good look at what Jesus has done for humanity.  Jesus reminds us, like the woman with two mites, to give out of our poverty and instead of our excess.  When we sacrifice, let it come from a true sacrifice not just because it's been laying around and we decide to give it away.
