"As they were going along the road, a man said to him, "I will follow you wherever you go." And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head." To another he said, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father." But he said to him, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God."

"Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days. Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned, you have killed the righteous man; he does not resist you."

Peter said in reply, "The Messiah of God." He rebuked them and directed them not to tell this to anyone.

When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it. And some seed fell on good soil, and when it grew, it produced fruit a hundredfold." After saying this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear."

For John the Baptist came neither eating food nor drinking wine, and you said, 'He is possessed by a demon.

Hey all, after discussing it with a couple of people, I have decided to set up a small 'shop front' at the website CafePress. I'm going to try to offer these daily images (along with some past work) as prints, posters and other things. The site address is: http://www.cafepress.com/leibergart. Feel free to take a look and let me know what you think of it. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet so this may just be temporary. Thanks.

"Jesus said to his disciples: 'To you who hear what I say, love your enemies do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

Give to everyone who asks of you, and from the one who takes what is yours do not demand it back."

"This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they live together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph, her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his intention when, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, 'Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.'"

"On a certain sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and taught, and there was a man whose right hand was withered. The scribes and the Pharisees watched him closely to see if he would cure on the sabbath so that they might discover a reason to accuse him. But he realized their intentions and said to the man with the withered hand, 'Come up and stand before us.' and he rose and stood there. Then Jesus said to them, 'I ask you, is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than destroy it?' Looking around at them all, he then said to him, 'Stretch out your hand.' He did so and his hand was restored. But they became enraged and discussed together what they might do to Jesus."

For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and out they come!"
