Following Jesus’ Footsteps – Monday of Holy Week

Do you want to hear from Jesus this week in a way that makes your Easter celebration more meaningful?  If so, here is a little challenge.  Follow His footsteps.  The Gospels give us a basic outline of the specific things Jesus did, the places He went, and the words He spoke.  Scholars disagree on some of the exact placement of a few of the events, but the “when” is not nearly as important as the “what” and the “why” of these truths.

Each day this week I’ll be posting some scripture references containing Jesus’ actions during this week leading up to the cross.  So grab your Bible, a piece of paper, and a pen.  Read the  scriptures listed, and ask God to open your eyes to the wonderful truths in His Word (Psalm 119:18). {That’s a prayer that He will always answer with a “Yes!” because it is His will for us to seek and find Him.}  Then let the Words of the Word wash over you and respond in your most personal way.  (If you don’t want to miss a day, you can have the posts e-mailed to you.  Just enter your e-mail address in the box to the left of this postMonday
