Lenten Study – Week 4

 

”Faith is like a small window through which you can see a vast landscape, the landscape in question is the sovereign power of the creator God and the overwhelming glory of Jesus himself.

We stand at the window doing our best to wipe it clean from the condensation of our own unbelieving breath, and holding on, as we do so, to those for whom we want to pray.”  N.T. Wright – Lent for Everyone

Resurrection Egg – Children’s Story

We may not be meeting together but we can certainly continue on with our story in the Resurrection Eggs.  This week we have……

Dark Green Resurrection Egg.

I wonder why we have a whip in one of the resurrection eggs. While Jesus was praying in the garden the people who wanted to kill him took him as their prisoner. Jesus hadn’t done anything wrong but the people who wanted to kill him were afraid of losing power. Jesus was whipped and it hurt him so much that he bled.

Yellow Resurrection Egg.

You would wonder what a rooster has to do with the Easter story. Peter was one of Jesus closest friends. He promised that no matter how dangerous it got he would always stand by Jesus. But Jesus knew that sometimes, when we are afraid or we realize we might be in danger ourselves that we forget to keep our promises. Jesus was sad to know, that before morning came and the rooster crowed, Peter would say he didn’t even know Jesus. This made Jesus and Peter very sad. And Peter was very sorry for not standing by Jesus.
