-46.  Without any sign that deliverance was coming, Jesus uses his last few breaths to cry out in trust to God.  Rather than respond to the mockery, slander, or insults, Jesus loudly quotes Psalm 31 before he breathes his last.  In quoting this psalm, Jesus recognizes that his breaths are in God's hands.  Jesus places a valuable deposit, his spirit, into the only secure place.  Every Monday in Lent join me for 700 Seconds in a Psalm as we prepare for Easter by looking at Psalms that Jesus quotes during the week before his death. Surprisingly, Jesus quotes more than 10 Psalms that week! We won't have time to examine every Psalm, but we will examine 6 Psalms Jesus quotes before and during his time on the cross.
