Have an inspiring Maundy Thursday
Read John 13: 1-17
Jesus answered, "Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you..."

Jesus told many parables. The Good Samaritan is one. Read Luke 10: 25-37
[Jesus] “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”
Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

Mark 14: 41-44 Jesus ... watched ... a poor widow ... put in two...coins...Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”

[Bill Markley @BillMarkley]

Mark 11: 15-18 ... Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. ... And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”

Happy Palm Sunday!
Matthew 21:8-11
A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,
“Hosanna to the Son of David!”

Happy Presidents Day!
