Holy Thursday

Not completely Biblical or cannonically correct, (as if the Lord worried about rewards!) but still captures the intense human-ess and fear our Lord must have experienced that night. And also shows how God can take our anger and fear.

Thank you, Jesus, for Gethsemane -- and thank you for walking me and so many others out of that garden of fear. I was afraid, and I thought I might be dying; you showed me there are far worse things than risking death for the one I loved.

Blessed Triduum, readers!

Prayer of Saint Gianna

Jesus, I promise You to submit myself to all that You permit to befall me; make me only know Your will. My most sweet Jesus, infinitely merciful God, most tender Father of souls, and in a particular way of the most weak, most miserable, most infirm which You carry with special tenderness between Your divine arms, I come to You to ask You, through the love and merits of Your Sacred Heart, the grace to comprehend and to do always Your holy will, the grace to confide in You, the grace to rest securely through time and eternity in Your loving divine arms. Amen.
