If we go to bed �out of tune� we will not sleep well and maybe then starting the next day out of tune as well. Don�t let the sun go down on your anger. Allow the spirit of God to put our beings back in tune and at peace before we go to bed. So it�s important to give thanks and discover where God has been in our lives day by day.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: It is indeed the last will and testament of Jesus to give to us, his disciples, this sign of loving service.

We know full well that apeter was first shocked and resisted, but changes his mind quickly as he wants to be deeply linked with Jesus. It is fitting that we would now repeat this sacramental ritual that Jesus left us as an example to be followed.
