Scripture reading: Mark 11:1-11
 “Let us not underestimate how hard it is to be compassionate. Compassion is hard because it requires the inner disposition to go with others to place where they are weak, vulnerable, lonely, and broken. But this is not our spontaneous response to suffering. What we desire most is to do away with suffering by fleeing from it or finding a quick cure for it.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen Scripture readings: Jeremiah 31:31-34 John 12:20-33
 “The creation of the world did not take place once and for all time, but takes place every day.”
― Samuel Beckett, Proust Scripture reading: Ephesians 2:1-10  “There are no unsacred places; there are only sacred places and desecrated places.”
― Wendell Berry, Given Scripture readings: Psalm 19 John 2:13-25 |
