Week 27 Day 1: Death and Resurrection
Forward
This week, we’ll complete the reading on the Gospel of Matthew and start on the Gospel of Mark.
In Gospel of Matthew, before parting, Jesus reminded us that we need to be alert and be prepared as He would come back at any time. It might be rare to see someone who isn’t interested in preparing for his or her own wedding; It is unimaginable for any disciple not to prepare for Jesus’ second coming. Our lives are not our own, and Lord may take it away at any moment. Only by knowing such urgency will make us vigilant and avoid regret. Let’s start serving others.
I shall not be ashamed when facing Jesus of thoughts deep in my heart, my private life, or my relationship with others. We are prepared when we treasure our relationship with God and make God the center of our lives. Being prepared makes us anticipate the beautiful eternity, makes life’s worries less important and turns our eyes to the greater needs.
May our God’s word renew you all each day!

Fidelity – The great commission to the disciples is to make disciples of all people. What in my service is taking part of that great commission? Am I living out the calling of the great commission?
