Old Testament Lesson

Isaiah 42:1-9

God has anointed His Son do justice, to do righteousness, to give glory to His name. And, through Jesus, He has anointed His church to do the same. We are live in the example of Christ, live in the grace of Christ, live in the power of Christ.

We are called to do great things. Each of us. Everyone one of us. God has called us each to something amazing! Live in that promise!

New Testament Lesson

Hebrews 9:11-15

Jesus is the mediator for our sins. Through Him, you are forgiven. Through Him, you know life. Through Him, you can know peace. Through Jesus. Not through our own might, strength, or power. Through Jesus.

Today, live in the glory of God's grace!

Gospel Lesson

John 12:1-11

Jesus reminds us to day that, believe it or not, our most important thing is not to serve others. It's to love Him. That must come first. Before everything. We love Him and be loved by Him. You are His child. From all the places you have sought love and acceptance, you can find it above in Jesus. You are loved. You are a son or daughter of the King.

Live as the Holy Child that you are!
