Jesus was on trial before Pilate.  The Pharisees made up lies and told stories about Jesus in order to crucify him.  They worked with a crowd to create anger and an uproar.  Pilate could find no wrong in Jesus because Jesus had done NO WRONG!!  The crowd was taken over by the lies of the Pharisees.  Pilate ultimately approved the crucifixion because he was afraid of the crowd and the backlash.  May we remember Jesus' suffering and pain each day and live our lives in thanksgiving for all He has done!

The biggest thing our children are learning this week is how we react to an act of God.  They are watching and taking in everyone's different reactions.  Let's make sure our reaction to this act of God is to rely on Him.  He has everything in His control.  We feel out of control because we do not know what will happen, how we will...all the questions.  These questions are all HIS!!  Give them to Him.  Teach your children how to pray knowing God has everything under control.  Teach your children that the Lord is our guidance.  Demonstrate to and with your children how to shin...
