he sat down

Opening Prayer: Lord Jesus, Lamb of God and Great High Priest, you are our living sacrifice.  You alone make us clean and pure and holy.  You alone do for us what the blood of sheep and bulls could never do.  Thank you that through your sacrifice we might be brought back into loving union with the One who made us for himself.  It is what we were made for.  Amen.  

Scripture: Hebrews 10:11-14

Journal: What are you trying to accomplish in your life?  In your life with Jesus?  What has he already accomplished for you?  How can you rest in that?

Reflection:

     he sat down

day after day

every high priest stands

performing his duties

offering sacrifices

again and again

because his work

is never done

but when jesus

our great high priest

offered his sacrifice

he sat down

at the right hand of god

because his work

was completed

why is it

that we spend our lives

constantly trying to achieve

something that has

already been 

accomplished 

for us

Prayer

Closing Prayer: Lord Jesus, our Great High Priest, thank you that you have accomplished for us, what we could never accomplish for ourselves.  Thank you for your sacrifice.  Make us holy, as you are holy.  In your name we lift our prayers.  Amen.
