مرقس 4:16-5

Merenungkan penderitaan dan kematian-Nya di kayu salib akan memperdalam penghayatan kita akan betapa besarnya kasih-Nya pada kita. Dan, merenungkan kebangkitan-Nya pada Minggu Paskah memberi kita harapan baru akan masa depan. Siapkan hatimu dengan meluangkan waktu terbaikmu, lalu berdoalah agar setiap artikel yang tertulis dalam renungan ini membuka kembali relung-relung hatimu untuk menerima kasih Kristus yang begitu besar, yang telah diwujudkan-Nya dalam kematian dan kebangkitan-Nya!
