Great Sabbath
 
Saturday, March 26 — Psalm 39:7–13
Exodus 31:12–32:29; Matthew 26:36–46
 
O Lord, let your ear be attentive to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night. Nehemiah 1:6
 
Jesus prays, “Holy Father, protect them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one.” John 17:11
 
Watching God, like your followers in times before, we sometimes cower behind closed and locked doors in fear and desperation. We long for signs, for assurance that sin and death are not the final answer. Break the grip of grief and fear with the coming announcement of the Life. Amen.
