SENT

SCRIPTURE

Luke 4:42-44 (NRSV)

Jesus preaches

At daybreak he departed and went into a deserted place. And the crowds were looking for him; and when they reached him, they wanted to prevent him from leaving them. But he said to them, "I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God to the other cities also; for I was sent for this purpose." So he continued proclaiming the message in the synagogues of Judea.

I must

good news
I must

The Truth
You must not prevent me
Hinder me
Dissuade me

for I am not yours
I am
SENT
for this purpose

I must
announce
glad tidings
I must
make known
my joy
You must not stop me
halt me
impede me
for I am not yours
I am not yours
I am
SENT
for this purpose

Move out of my way
I love you
but I must go
I must

risen
coming again
the incarnate
good news

I am
