SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY LUKE 6:1-5

Jesus Is Lord over the Sabbath

¹ One Sabbath day Jesus was walking through some fields of grain. His followers picked the heads of grain, rubbed them in their hands, and ate them.

² Some Pharisees said, "Why do you do what is not lawful on the Sabbath day?"

³ Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did when he and those with him were hungry?

⁴ He went into God's house and took and ate the holy bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he gave some to the people who were with him."

⁵ Then Jesus said to the Pharisees, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day."

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
