Morning: Psalms 87, 90; Ezekiel 3:4-17; Hebrews 5:7-14
Jesus
prepares the disciples for his being betrayed. “Let these words sink
into your ears”, he says. But they do not understand. Sometimes Jesus’s
words are so straightforward and simple, but we complicate them or miss
what he is saying. Maybe that’s because the raw simplicity of learning
Love – learning to Love one another – is actually very demanding and
scary to us? I don’t suppose the next thing Jesus says is any easier
either: “Whoever welcomes this child in my name welcomes me ... for the
least among you is the greatest.” Let these words sink in too.
Daily readings, thoughts from Graham. Pilgrims on the Way to the shrine of the apostle James in Spain shout a greeting to one another: “Ultreya!”; "Keep going", "Press on", “Onward”.
