Jesus knew that he was entering into a sacred time. Everything he had said and done for his entire life was leading to the cross. But throughout his life, many had failed to recognize his presence as a “sacred time” — the time of their salvation.
Holy Week is our “sacred time” — it’s our own opportunity to encounter Jesus in the very essence of who he is — our Savior and Redeemer. Will you enter into this “sacred time” and journey with Jesus into his Paschal mystery? Or will you only hear about the events from others.
Holy Week is a life-giving testimony of a God who loves you enough to sacrifice his life; who loves you enough to feed and nourish you at his table; who loves you enough to give you new life in the Resurrection.
Throughout Holy Week you have the opportunity to let the Holy Spirit bring new life within you — to not only allow him to save you from your sin, but to instill life and hope within you.
The hour has come. Don’t miss out on the grace of this “sacred time”. Let the love of God fill your heart and heal your soul. This is Holy Week.
