SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Matthew 20:17-19
17 While Jesus was going to Jerusalem, he took
his twelve followers aside privately and said to them, 18 "Look, we are going to Jerusalem. The Son of
Man will be turned over to the leading priests and the teachers of the law, and
they will say that he must die. 19 They will give the Son of Man to the
non-Jewish people to laugh at him and beat him with whips and crucify him. But
on the third day, he will be raised to life again."
PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, it is under Your wings that we find You to be a refuge in
sorrow! How our heart yearningly turns to Your rest! Often when earth has no
balm for our healing, there we find comfort and there we are blest. Under Your
wings, there is precious enjoyment! There we will hide till life’s trials are
o’er; sheltered, protected, no evil can harm us, resting in Jesus we are safe
evermore. Under Your wings our souls shall abide, safely abide forever.
Amen.
