Today's Lectionary TextThroughout Advent, we will read the book of Luke together. You are invited to pause for a few minutes, quite your soul and read contemplatively Luke 19.![]() Today's Devotional
After reading the entire chapter, pause and read the highlighted verses below for further reflection.
Today‘s focus is on verses Luke 19:36-40. As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road. When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen: “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!” “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.” Meditate
