WORD OF THE DAY - Saturday 11 April 2009


As evening approached, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who had himself become a disciple of Jesus. Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him. Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut out of the rock. He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb. (Matthew 27:57-61 NIV)

Our dear Heavenly Father ~ Thank you for the precious gift of life on this new day that dawns with a bountiful supply of blessings that sustain our lives. Help us to be eager to do good deeds as those brave followers of Christ did long ago, as they watched Him die for our sins. Give us wisdom and courage to seize every opportunity that comes our way for spreading the Good News of eternal salvation. In Jesus name, Amen.
