DAILY READINGS: 2 Chronicles 7; Ezekiel 32; John 11:55 to 12:19

That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed. Luke 1:4

Luke the physician gives us Christ’s progress report. He is laid in a manger, wrapped in swaddling clothes. He is in the temple in Simeon’s arms, and at twelve, sitting with the doctors answering their questions. At thirty He is in the wilderness rebuking the devil, then in the synagogue with the Book in His hand. At 33, He is in the upper room, then the garden, then before Pilate and Herod, and then nailed to the tree. Resurrection! Then He is on the seashore, then at Bethany, and then in heaven. Today, He is in my heart and I will worship Him! —Robert E. Surgenor

O Lord, when we the path retrace, which Thou on earth hast trod,
To man Thy wondrous love and grace, Thy faithfulness to God. —J. Deck
