If I say I love You sweet Jesus and follow You, would I allow lust to rule my mind? Would I entertain thoughts of sinful temptations? Would I allow anything to separate myself from You?
You dear Jesus who love me so much that You have set me free; do I instead place the shackles of sin back on?
Jesus, Your dying on the cross is the only sign I we will need to remind me of Your great love for me. How by Your resurrection You have conquered death and freed me.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God; have mercy on me a sinner. Amen

Gospel
Luke 11:29-32
The crowds got even bigger and Jesus addressed them, ‘This is a wicked generation; it is asking for a sign The only sign it will be given is the sign of Jonah. For just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. On Judgement day the Queen of the South will rise up with the men of this generation and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and there is something greater than Solomon here. On Judgement day the men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation and condemn it, because when Jonah preached they repented; and there is something greater than Jonah here.’
