Ah, what happiness lies before us as we witness to the love of our Lord by living lives worthy of this last week of happiness and torment.
Tomorrow is the Feast Day of Palm Sunday, marked by happy hosannas as Jesus enters into the city of Jerusalem.
Then later during this Holy Week comes the institution of the Eucharist as the Christ offers His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity for our salvation.
And the indescribable pain and suffering of Good Friday, when He pays the price for our sins and disobedience.
Then, the utter desolation of thinking Him gone only to awaken on Easter Sunday morning with such joy as we begin to grasp that life, eternal life is ours, bought and paid for by our Lord and brother.
Ah, sweet Jesus. Thank you for your love for us.
Help me to make a good final approach to that glorious day. Amen.
