From Morning Prayer:

 

Weekend day of Lent

Saint Vincent Ferrer, Priest

 

 

So there was a division among the people over Him. Some of them wanted to arrest Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

 

 

The officers went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, "Why did you not bring him?" The officers answered, "No man ever spoke like this man!"

 

The Pharisees answered them, "Are you led astray, you also? Have any of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed in Him? But this crowd, who do not know the law, are accursed."

 

Nicodemus, who had gone to Him before, and who was one of them, said to them, "Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?" They replied, "Are you from Galilee too? Search and you will see that no prophet is to rise from Galilee."

 

They went each to his own house.

 

(loosely from the Gospel of Lk. 7: 40-53)

 

I pray that this text finds you seeing that Jesus Christ chose you, you didn't 'find' Him.

 

I pray that we may all have had a day of being as courageous as Nicodemus.

 

Please pray for all those listed in all the parts of the litany from last Monday (Part 1)(Part 2)(Part 3)(Part 4).

 

Simplicity, Humility, and Praise  🙏 ✌️
