“In the holiest of weeks, learn from the mistakes of Adam, Eve, Judas, and a great many of people over the centuries. When it comes to the Passion of Christ, you are either with Jesus or against Jesus (Luke 11:23). Give the Lord absolute loyalty over your heart and tongue. Give Jesus your sympathy (Psalm 69:21). Dialogue with God and not the forces opposed to Him. Jesus tells each one of us: ‘Come to Me’ (Matthew 11:28).” – Don Schwager
As we journey towards the celebration of our Lords passion, death and resurrection let us be reminded to remain faithful to God. Remain prayerful asking Him, be the Lord of our heart and loyalties. Devoting yourself and making promises daily. Praising the Lord for all that He has done and for His never-ending and never failing love and mercy.
We are called to be like Jesus. Obedient, which lead to suffering. Through suffering, He was able to trust in His fathers will bringing Him self-denial. Emptying of Himself bringing us, His children, grace so that we may witness God’s true and divine love.
