Scripture Matthew 16:21-28
21 From that time on, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and undergo great suffering at the hands of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, ‘God forbid it, Lord! This must never happen to you.’ 23 But he turned and said to Peter, ‘Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling-block to me; for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.’
24 Then Jesus told his disciples, ‘If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life? Or what will they give in return for their life?
27 ‘For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay everyone for what has been done. 28 Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.’
Prayer for Open Minds Gracious God, help us to listen for your word for us today through scripture and through the wisdom of each other, with the openness and trust of a child, with the questioning mind of a youth, with the discerning heart of one grown to maturity, and with the wisdom of one seasoned by years. Amen
Discussion of Scripture Today’s Theme and questions: How often are we on the receiving end of the call to lead, ready with all the reasons we can’t or shouldn’t or don’t want to? And how often do we dodge that call?
Prayer Requests & Lord’s Prayer
Prayer for Open Doors God, Creator and Sustainer, open doors for us this week that we may touch the lives of your children by our deeds and words. Grant us your peace and your presence, Lord as we
live following the example of Christ Jesus. Amen
