Lent 2026 Day 12: March 3, 2026
Matthew 23:1-12
Lent Day 12:
Welcome to Day 12 of Lent 2026 today is Tuesday March 3, 2026. Today's Gospel reading and Encounter with Jesus is Matthew 23: 1-12
Today’s encounter with Jesus, he encourages us to humble ourselves so we may be exulted. He uses the Pharisees actions as a way to look at how we should not live our lives. It lead me to ask myself the question, Why do I do the things I do?
At the end of the reflection I take a moment to pray with you and give you tomorrow’s Gospel reading if you want to read it ahead of time.
