“God
of strength and mercy, by the suffering and death of Your Son, free us from
slavery to sin and death and protect us in all our weakness; through Christ
Jesus our Lord. Amen.” UM Book Of Worship #346
Let
us not get so caught up in the busy-ness of the work week that we fail to
journey with Jesus and try to envision His last days on earth. He
certainly knew where the week would take Him – and we do now only in hindsight
– but we may more fully appreciate His last days if we dare to journey with Him
and experience even a little of what He actually endured.
Recommended
readings for Monday of Holy Week: Isaiah 42:1-9; Psalm 36:5-11;
Hebrews 9:11-15; John 12:1-11
Blessings,
Michael
