Today’s Reading: Matthew 27:24
(EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)
“When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands…”
(Matthew 27:24)
THIS WEEK’S EFKS THEME
(The Gospel of Matthew: From Death to Resurrection)
A Thought for Today
It can be easier to step back than to stand firm.
What This Means for Us Today
Pilate saw what was right, but chose to step away from responsibility.
Instead of making a just decision, he gave in to pressure and passed it on.
This moment shows how easily we can avoid what is difficult.
Yet stepping back does not remove the weight of what is right.
Carry This With You
Choose what is right, even when it is uncomfortable.
A Simple Prayer
Lord, give me courage to stand firm.
Help me not to turn away from what is right.
Today’s Invitation
Notice one moment today where you are tempted to step back.
Choose to respond with courage.
