Yesterday, we celebrated Palm Sunday, remembering how Jesus rode into Jerusalem on the colt of a donkey. On Friday, we’ll focus on His death on the cross. A few days, an extreme change.
What do I have planned for the same span of time? Work, cook, clean — routine stuff.
James 4:14-15 (MSG)
You don’t know the first thing about tomorrow …. make it a habit to say, “If the Master wills it and we’re still alive, we’ll do this or that.”
Extreme or routine, as “the Master wills it.”
Good morning, Lord. It’s Holy Week, when we focus on the events that led to the cross. In everything, You obeyed Your Father in heaven. This week, even more than usual, I should be willing and obedient. If (when) I stray, nudge me back on the path of righteousness. When I’m tempted, give me the strength to just say no.
When things don’t go my way, teach me to say, “Your will be done.”
