Day 3: Holy Tuesday

On the third day of Holy Week, Jesus spent the day teaching and facing questions posed by religious and political leaders, They were furious about His actions in the temple and wanted to trick Him with their questions. They sought answers to advance their own agendas, but Jesus knew they didn't want the truth. He responded with parables to teach the crowd about the kingdom of God, presenting a different way of living. Despite attempts to trap Him, Jesus persevered and eventually addressed an important question about God's greatest commandment: loving God completely and loving others wholeheartedly. He emphasized the connection between the two, encouraging people to live according to God's upside-down way. This day marked the beginning of what would lead to Jesus' final days on earth, demonstrating His readiness to tackle tough topics and challenge conventional thinking.

Throughout Jesus' time on earth, we can see evidence of what a life led by the Holy Spirit looks like. We can learn so much from Him about following God and loving people in ways that look much different than the world.

Reflection:

Today as you reflect, ask yourself this question…

What is an area of my life that God is asking me to live in an “upside-down way” compared to our culture? Why is this hard for me?

Spend time to today in prayer. Allow God to give you clarity as you ask Him to help you live counter culturally and aligned with His ways.
