DAILY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION #64 - SPECIAL HOLY WEEK EDITION


Tomorrow is Holy Thursday and according to Wikipedia it is the Christian holy day falling on the Thursday before Easter. It commemorates the Washing of the Feet (Maundy) and Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles, as described in the canonical gospel, and marks the end of Lent. And since there is no church services available anywhere due the COVID-19 virus, I’d to take everyone back to Ash Wednesday, Ash Wednesday the Christian holy day of prayer and fasting and which is preceded by Shrove Tuesday and falls on the first day of Lent, the six weeks of penitence before Easter. And in doing so I’d like to offer everyone this “special” set of scripture for everyone to meditate/reflect on:


Always be humble and gentle. Patiently put up with each other and love each other.  EPHESIANS 4:12 [Contemporary English Version = CEV]
Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, EPHESIANS 5:19 [NKJV]
Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain? GALATIANS 3:4 [NKJV]


When I see the rainbow in the sky, I will always remember the promise that I have made to every living creature. GENESIS 9:16 [CEV]
Everyone was amazed and praised God. What they saw surprised them, and they said, "We have seen a great miracle today!" LUKE 5:16 [CEV]
Don't mistreat someone who has mistreated you. But try to earn the respect of others, ROMANS 12:17 [CEV]
Never give up. Eagerly follow the Holy Spirit and serve the Lord. ROMANS 12:11 [CEV]
Everyone who heard about this wondered what this child would grow up to be. They knew the Lord was with him. LUKE 1:66 [CEV]
Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah PSALM 3:8 [NKJV]
Do not listen to that prophet's words or to that dreamer. For the LORD your God is testing you to know whether you love the LORD your God with all your heart and all your soul. DEUTERONOMY 13:3 [Christian Standard Bible]
Always be humble and gentle. Patiently put up with each other and love each other. ESPHESIANS 4:2 [CEV]
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. MATTHEW 5:14 [NKJV]
