Luke 23:44-46 (Common English Bible)
44 It was now about noon, and darkness covered the whole earth until about three o’clock, 45 while the sun stopped shining. Then the curtain in the sanctuary tore down the middle. 46 Crying out in a loud voice, Jesus said, “Father, into your hands I entrust my life.” After he said this, he breathed for the last time.
Summary:
In the last of Jesus’ seven sayings from the cross, Jesus entrusts his spirit to God. Though his persecutors can kill his body, Jesus reminds them that they do not have control of his soul. In death, Jesus entrusts his life to God.
Reflection Questions:
- What is a word, phrase or image that comes to mind when you read or hear the text?
- What does this scripture teach you about trust?
- What does God invite you to do, change or be through this passage?
