walking to calvary

" Do not stumble over something behind you."
As we journey deeper into Holy Week, it's easy to get sidetracked from drawing close to Jesus because we're afraid of our past. This is exactly the time when we need to press on, undaunted, in order to to be reunited with the love God extends to us. Webster says that to be reconciled means to become friendly again. This is the path we're on! Returning to a friendship with God!


Lord, give us strength to push aside the negativity that presses on us from our past. Help us to discard religion that feeds us with guilt and shame. Allow us to feast on your offer of friendship, undeserving though we may be. We thank you for your great kindness!
