Tuesday of Holy Week – Bless us with Passion

Tuesday, April 19th, 2011

We continue to observe Holy Week, the sacred days before Easter.  We recall the ministry of Jesus, his last supper with his friends, his passion, and his death.  On Easter Sunday, with the entire Christian family, we celebrate Christ’s resurrection and the liberation of the world from the slavery of sin and death. 

Loving God, you startle us with your love.  When we expect to wait, you say now!  When we say we need to prepare, you say my day is at hand.  Bless us, God, with passion for this day.  Bless us with the courage to walk with you—into that bright future which is your holy now! Amen.

Join us and share a favorite prayer or reflection celebrating the ministry of Jesus.  How does Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice inspire and impact you each day?
