Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer


Today’s Reading: Psalm 53 (NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

LORD God
of heaven and earth.
I bow my knees before you.
Grant me a pure heart
so I can see you at work all around me
in my daily life.
In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.

Post Resurrection Reading:
Their Eyes Were Opened

As they approached the village
to which they were going,
Jesus continued on as if he were going farther.
But they urged him strongly,
“Stay with us, for it is nearly evening;
the day is almost over.”
So he went in to stay with them.

When he was at the table with them,
he took bread, gave thanks,
broke it and began to give it to them.
Then their eyes were opened
and they recognized him,
and he disappeared from their sight.
They asked each other,
“Were not our hearts burning within us
while he talked with us on the road
and opened the Scriptures to us?”

They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem.
There they found the Eleven
and those with them,
assembled together and saying,
“It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.”
Then the two told what had happened on the way,
and how Jesus was recognized by them
when he broke the bread.
(Luke 24:28-35).

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
And we ought to lay down our lives
for our brothers and sisters.
(1 John 3:16 NIV)

Ideal for the Season of Lent


Watch the triumphal entry of the donkey-riding king through the eyes of Marcus Longinus, the centurion charged with keeping the streets from erupting into open rebellion.

Look behind the scenes at the political plotting of King Herod, known as the scheming Fox for his ruthless shrewdness.

Get a front-row seat to the confrontation between the Jewish high priest Caiaphas and the Roman governor Pontius Pilate.

Understand as never before the horror of the decision to save a brutal terrorist in order to condemn the peaceful Jew to death.
