St. Irenaeus of Sirmium taught us to continually profess our faith even when faced with torment and death. Father, give me the strength to be faithful even when I am confronted with mockery & fear.
Scripture Reading for Day 6 of He is Risen
Isaiah 9:6-7 His dominion is vast and forever peaceful, upon David’s throne, and over his kingdom, which he confirms and sustains by judgment and justice, both now and forever.e The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this! 7The Lord has sent a word against Jacob, and it falls upon Israel;
Hebrews 9:27-28 Just as it is appointed that human beings die once, and after this the judgment,t 28so also Christ, offered once to take away the sins of many,* will appear a second time, not to take away sin but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await him.u
Morning, the Monday after Easter… the Monday of the Angel– the women who arrived at Jesus’ tomb to find it empty and an Angel there…Matthew 28: What are you finding this morning as you go to look for Jesus?
Back to normal week for me today, have a teacher pickup at 7, then workshop workers at 9. Hearing aid appt at 11. Nothing too strenuous…
I did manage to get a haircut last week while I was in DBQ. It was much needed. I’d begun to look like a shaggy dog.
Book…HOME FRONT... Kristin Hannah… a must-read! Especially if you have/had loved ones in Iraq/Iran. The audio is very good.
April’s flower is a daisy… it represents tenaciousness, innocence, purity, new beginnings, joy, and true love. It does not just bud, blossom, and die like most other flowers. It performs a daily routine of “sleeping” at night by closing and waking in the morning, by opening up again.
Know you are prayed for.
