Reflections

When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I AM, and that I do nothing on my own, but I say only what the Father taught me.
(John 8:28)

In the desert, Moses lifted up a seraph, mounted to shape a cross, to heal the serpent bites. Now you tell us, my Jesus, that when you are lifted up, we will know that You Are Who Are. We will be healed, even from the most evil of serpents, Satan himself. How can we thank you?

Father, Son and Holy Spirit; Creator, Savior, Paraclete; we worship you. We fall at the foot of the cross, in adoration, not despair, for you will lift us up – to your cross and to your resurrection.

As Holy Week approaches, draw me into your passion, your unfathomable love. I have finished my appointments, my commitments, and most of my tasks. I am free to enter into this most sacred time of the year. Please draw me closer to you, Lord. I will do whatever I can, with your grace, to remove whatever obstacles and distractions remain. Thy will be done.
