(Theta) Real Presence (Psalm 73:23 & Luke 22:42 43)

This LENT we are providing a daily (Monday-Saturday) journaling opportunity. Journaling Day 38 April 17 1. On this day, we have our Lord’s shortest prayer. How and when have you prayed this prayer? 2. How does it feel to know that your God holds your right hand? What about this promise sounds like the last words Jesus gives to His followers in Matthew 28:18, “ and lo I am with you always to the close of the age?” 3. Jesus gives the new commandment today that we should love one another “as I have loved you.” The greatest commandment given before this said, “love one another as you love yourself.” Write down your thoughts about the little word “as” in both commands and how this new command (“mandare”) affects you differently because it is based on experiencing the love of your Lord.
