Today is Tuesday, August 27th, 2024; Karen's Korner #5192

I am continuing my journey through reading the book of John. I have finished with Jesus' teachings and am coming into his arrest and crucifixion.


"Standing near the cross were Jesus' mother, Mary, his aunt, the wife of 
Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother standing there beside me (John, writer), his close friend, he said to her, 'He is your son.'

"And to me he said, 'She is your mother!' And from then on I took her into my home."


~ John 19:25  -  27 LAB

Bible Commentary:  "Even when dying on the cross, Jesus was concerned about his family. He instructed John to care for Mary, his mother. Our families are precious gifts from God, and we should value and care for them under all circumstances. What is there that we can do today to show our love to our family members?"
