“There is something that God wants me to know, feel, or do differently because of what I am about to read.”
God wants me to know that Jesus is King. I love the concept of addressing him as my king each time I pray. I will work on making that adjustment in my own prayer life.
Interesting, I don’t often think of “Jesus as King” I think of him as friend, comforter, teacher of truths, Lord, saviour, but not particularly as King. I shall have to ponder this concept.
My takeaway-

I love this old hymn:
Lead Me to Calvary
Lyrics-Jennie E. Hussey, 1921
King of my life, I crown Thee now,
Thine shall the glory be;
Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
Lead me to Calvary.
Refrain:
Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget Thine agony;
Lest I forget Thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.
Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid,
Tenderly mourned and wept;
Angels in robes of light arrayed
Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept.
Let me like Mary, through the gloom,
Come with a gift to Thee;
Show to me now the empty tomb,
Lead me to Calvary.
May I be willing, Lord, to bear
Daily my cross for Thee;
Even Thy cup of grief to share,
Thou hast borne all for me.
