Tuesday in Cheese-Fare Week
The season of repentance is at
hand. In our love for Christ let us hasten to be cleansed of all
transgressions, that when we appear before the Master we may be numbered
with the blessed.

Jude 17-23 - But you
must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord
Jesus Christ; they said to you, "In the last time there will be
scoffers, following their own ungodly passions." It is these who set up
divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, build
yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit; keep
yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus
Christ unto eternal life. And convince some, who doubt; save some, by
snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating
even the garment spotted by the flesh. |

Luke 22:39-46 - And
[Jesus] came out, and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives;
and the disciples followed him. And when he came to the place he said to
them, "Pray that you may not enter into temptation." And he withdrew
from them about a stone's throw, and knelt down and prayed, "Father, if
thou art willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but
thine, be done."And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples
and found them sleeping for sorrow, and he said to them, "Why do you
sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation." (RSV) |
