Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
