PSALM 23:5 (CEB)
You set a table for me
right in front of my enemies.
You bathe my head in oil;
my cup is so full it spills over!
1 CORINTHIANS 15:26 (REB)
The last enemy to be deposed is death.
THE ESSENCE
Death, the last enemy, is eradicated on Easter.
DAILY FODDER
Is there anything about death that scares you? At what point does the fear of death lose its grip?
PRAYER
Resurrected Savior, I celebrate your victory. Save me from any lingering concerns about death. I'm not ready to transition, yet, but I know that because of you death has lost its stinger. If I have to face death today I'll step forward with resurrection confidence. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
