1. Today, Maundy Thursday, we receive the feast of Christ’s true body and blood for us, for the forgiveness of our sins. All of them.
  2. How fitting that we have our feet washed by the very God from whom we once ran in terror and shame.
  3. Christ has come to make every last aspect of your life the object of his eternal, never-ending, always transitive grace.
  4. Easter must be seen in light of the cross. It must never overshadow Good Friday. They are a packaged deal!
  5. Great things are contained in these seemingly unimportant words: "Behold, your king." Such boundless gifts are brought by this poor and despised king.
  6. It is good to remember that this true story, is also beautiful.
  7. The Lord sees the blood of the Lamb upon us, but does not merely pass over us in mercy. He passes into us by grace.
  8. What grace is this? It’s grace from Christ, who often seizes us when we least expect it, even through the hands of His enemies.
  9. Lent means that we do not have to look to ourselves but can look to our neighbor in love as Christ has loved us.
  10. God is mercy. He was mercy then. He’s mercy now. God showed them His glory, if only a reflection, in the face of Moses.
  11. I may feel today that the Lord has not found me, but in fact he has – he is intimately acquainted with all my ways.
  12. If we think God’s power, love and beauty are reserved merely for the glories of Transfiguration, then we have not understood the Father; we have not understood divine revelation.
