24 March 2015

Tuesday 24th March ~ Hebrews 11.32‐12.2 ~ Hébreux 11.32‐12.2

Jeremiah 22.1‐5, 13‐19 ~ Jérémie 22.1-5, 13-19

Psalm 35 ~ Psaumes 35

John 11.45‐end ~ Jean 11.45- fin


This passage gives us a great excuse to dig back into the OT and remind

ourselves, or find out for the first time, what all these “heroes” mentioned by

the writer of Hebrews actually did. Well Gideon got cold feet (wet fleece, dry

fleece); Barak got cold feet (“..If you go with me, I will go; but if you don’t go

with me, I won’t go...”); Samson – well he seemed to have a weakness or two,

didn’t he!

So all these great men and women were weak, sinful, and uncertain. Just like

us. But God still loved them, and loves us, and we must keep going and run

the great race.



As the Message puts it “...Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and

finished this race we’re in....” So whether our plan for Lent is to give

something up or to take something up, our focus should be Jesus.

May we all experience renewal of our faith this Lent.
