Him led to the Cross
Gospel of Mark Ch 15 v- 16 thru 20
16 The soldiers led him away inside the palace, that is, the praetorium, and assembled the whole cohort. 17 They clothed him in purple and, weaving a crown of thorns, placed it on him. 18 They began to salute him with, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 and kept striking his head with a reed and spitting upon him. They knelt before him in homage. 20 And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak, dressed him in his own clothes, and led him out to crucify him.
If you’ve ever been accused of doing something that you didn’t do but took the punishment for the crew then you may have some inclination of what Jesus was going through. He was accused and mocked remaining silent to the very end. He accepted every blow even the nails that pieced His skin. When in the control of others because of sin, you can’t begin to understand how to act without jumping back into it again. To protect yourself seems ludicrous that you’d pay so death would have to begin but that’s what happens often in a society filled with sin. They want to kill the truth making God be the blame of how to react seems totally insane. But God reminds us we will be persecuted we will suffer for His Name at some point whether by others or even your own blood even when the truth is evident and the bystanders remain obtuse we must follow the way of Jesus even if death becomes our call to rest in Him eternal life that’s all no more running no more hiding allowing Jesus to make His stand in you. Amen.
Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty happy 82 we pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. Silence for the prayers of others dealing with the war in Ukraine. In the Holy Spirit we pray our brothers in Kairos especially a prayer for our men in blue. We pray for our niece Brittany who is a mother of four and 33 years old who has brain cancer stage four. We pray for Holy Mother Church. We pray for our Holy Mother. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Him led to the Cross**
Palace inside away soldiers Him led
Cohort whole assembled in the praetorium pray tell
Purple He was clothed thorns crown woven upon His head
Him they would salute Jews King hail spitting head striking hell
Him mocked kneeling giving Him homage without rest
Cloak purple stripped clothes own He was dressed
Him led to the Cross where He’d undergo the test
Him Crucify leaving His body a mess before absolute death
