Day 38: Death
Scripture:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
John 3:16-17
Prayer:
God.
Your son gave his cheek to those who struck him and for our sake, he endured much mockery.
May we follow that example of his sufferings.
We may be courageous in bearing our own, and learn from him, for he is meek and lowly in heart.
And he reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
Forever and ever. Amen.
Reflection:
How will Jesus show up in my day today?
Do I have the eyes and ears to see and hear the wonders of his love and mercy?
How will I experience his grace? Will I see something miraculous? Something hope-filled that will transform me?
