Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”43And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true.”

Afterward Joseph of Arimathea, who had been a secret disciple of Jesus (because he feared the Jewish leaders), asked Pilate for permission to take down Jesus’ body. 

Lord God my Father,

Even the lost know you, use me as you wish to spread your Truth and use your Truth to guide my thoughts. Help me to not hide in the shadows and give me courage to live your desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
