Thought for the day
Thought for the day:
Before I went to work today. I read a passage or verse from the bible. I just want to feed my mind and spirit with God’s word. The passage was Matthew 6:13, “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.” I really liked this passage because this reminds me to always pray to God in times of temptation. I prayed today that I wouldn’t be tempted to give any comments about anybody at work. I really don’t gossiping because it is wrong to judge other people, as I don’t want to be judged. My day at work was really good. I was not tempted to gossip. There were a few times that I was being tested but I passed it. I felt the Holy Spirit was with me reminding me not to dwell on sinful thoughts.
Repent and Reflect
It is Holy week. Holy week is the last week of Lent. It is customarily a time of fasting and penance. It is most observed in many Christians, especially the Catholic, to venerate and remember the suffering, crucifixion, and death of Jesus Christ. Holy week starts with Palm Sunday. This is to commemorate the entrance of Jesus to Jerusalem. The people who were in Jerusalem with palm branches and proclaimed marked Jesus as the Messiah or King. In some areas of the world, people are reading and singing passages or quotes of the Passion story from John’s gospel. In this Holy week, we Christians should spend this week in fasting, repentance, prayer and reflection on the suffering, pain and death of Jesus Christ on the cross. Have a blessed Holy Week everyone!
