Our Bible Buddy today is SCOUT. Scout is an eagle - a large, powerful bird with humongous wings and load of feathers!! Scout wants us to remember that:
Everything is possible with God!
Scout also wants us to remember that:
Our Bible story today is about Jesus' arrest and trial, and is found in Matthew 26:36-27:31. Jesus was betrayed by Judas, arrested in the Garden, and taken to the High Priest's house to stand before the ruling council or Sanhedrin. They found him guilty of a bunch of trumped-up charges, but they did not have the authority to order capital punishment, so they took Jesus to Pilate.
Pilate had Jesus flogged (beaten with leather whips embedded with sharp bone or metal). He then condemned Jesus to die. The people around Jesus said and did terrible things, but Jesus never lost His trust in God. Our memory verse for today says,
I am a singer by trade and by love of music. Since childhood, music has been my touchstone and the joy of my life. It has the capacity to move, to comfort, to inspire. I was born and raised on the sands of the deserts of Arizona. Thus I am the singeronthesand.
Thank you for visiting my daily blog, a chronicle of my thoughts on the joy and the pain of the Christian life as we live it on this whirling planet. I am honored that you have chosen to spend a few moments with me today.
