Day 83
Luke 21-24
You sent your only Son, Jesus Christ the Messiah, to fulfill all your promises: Give me new life in him.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, Your Son asked us to take up our individual
crosses as we journey to salvation and to be willing to join our earthly sufferings
to His. In accepting this call, we also drink
from His cup of suffering in the hopes that we might one day also partake of His
cup of glory. In the meantime, we gratefully
accept the Cup of Blessing that is the Eucharist the cup of His Precious Blood
that sustains us on our earthly journey.
Like the disciples who Jesus told to “stay awake” in the garden of Gethsemane
we know that we must also “stay awake,” being vigilant to guard our souls from
the stain of sin and to be dedicated to prayer in our spiritual journey because
we have Your promise that the prayers of those who “watch and pray” will be heard. Send Your Spirit to guide us, Lord, in our
study of Jesus’ submission to Your will and Your plan for man’s salvation
through His Passion. We pray in the name
of God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. (Agape Catholic Bible Study Lesson 15)
