ENCOURAGEMENT his Sunday’s Gospel is our final selec on from Mark for this liturgical year. It is taken from the end of Jesus’ teach‐ ing in Jerusalem immediately preceding the account of his arrest and passion. In it Jesus gives his disciples hope to T sustain them through his passion and death and any persecu on or suffering that they would encounter a er his resurrec on. The words from the book of Daniel also provided hope and encouragement to the people of Daniel’s me. The encour‐ agement in these scriptures is meant for us as well, for none of us will escape tribula on in our lives. Followers of Jesus will be able to endure suffering with joyful hope, knowing that Christ’s love will lead us along the way of discipleship and give us eternal life with God. Copyright © J. S.
