When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they could go and anoint Jesus’ dead body. 2 Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they came to the tomb. 3 They were saying to each other, “Who’s going to roll the stone away fromContinue reading “Morning”
Victory!
50 This is what I’m saying, brothers and sisters: Flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s kingdom.

Suffering Servant
13 Look, my servant will succeed. He will be exalted and lifted very high.14 Just as many were appalled by you, he too appeared disfigured, inhuman, his appearance unlike that of mortals.15 But he will astonish many nations. Kings will be silenced because of him, because they will see what they haven’t seen before; what they haven’t heard before, they will ponder.53 Who can believe whatContinue reading “Suffering Servant”
