My regular blog readers will know that I LOVE Easter! It is a celebration of the resurrection of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and that is one of the best things in my world to celebrate.
My regular blog readers will also know that in the past I have tried to write posts every day of the week prior to Easter. Hopefully this year will be no exception. My thoughts are still rolling around and I am praying for the right words for such an occasion. The story of the extreme act of love of Jesus on the cross needs no more need for anything but the telling, but I want to share my heart the upcoming week.
My regular blog readers will also know that I encourage the reading of the Biblical accounts leading up to Easter from each of the gospels during pre-Easter week. Here is the list to aid that for you.
Jesus rides into Jerusalem.....Matt 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:29-40; John 12:12-19
The Last Supper with the twelve....Matt. 26:17-30; Mark 14:12-26; Luke 22:3-39; John 13
Sold out....Matt 26: 1-16; Mark 14:1-2, 10-11: Luke 22:1-6
In the Garden....Matthew 26:36-56; Mark14: 32-52; Luke 22:39-53; John 17, 18:1-11
Guilty?.....Matthew 26:57-75; Mark14:53-72; Luke 22:54-71; John 18:12-27
A Dark Day....Matthew 27:1-66; Mark 15:1-47; Luke 23; John 18:28-42
The Tomb....Matthew 28; Mark 16; Luke 24; John 20
My words these next few days might mirror or repeat some of my thoughts from past years but the story bears repeating....over and over again.
Keep your hearts looking up! Easter's coming!
Consider....
