Luke in 33 Days - Luke 24:13-53


Saturday 30 March

Read Luke 24:13-53

Think

Lk 24:13-35 – It seems these disciples thought it had all ended in the tomb.  There was no way they could believe this stranger walking with them was Jesus; until, in his breaking of bread – they recognized him.
Lk 24:36-49 – When Jesus meets his disciples in the upper room he reminds them why he came.  “Repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.”  We can know that we are forgiven, and we can tell others that they can be forgiven to – because of Jesus.
Lk 24:50-53 – Jesus was taken up to heaven; the disciples returned to the temple to worship and wait – for the Holy Spirit to give them power.

Pray

Thank God for the gift that he has given us in inspiring Luke to tell the story of Jesus.  Pray for the Spirit’s power to help you to go out and continue telling this story to the world.
Don’t forget (if you’re in Paarl) to come and worship on Easter Sunday at 06h30am!
