Palm Sunday

The mercy of God

From today’s Scripture: “He said, ‘Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Take this cup away from me, but not what I will but what you will.’”—Mk 14:36

Jesus came that humanity might know the mercy of God and experience reconciliation. We see this mercy as Jesus expresses it for the very people who are trying to frustrate his purpose. He thereby underscores the purpose of his mission.

Let us pray: Lord, give me the insight to see what my actions do to my relationship with others and, especially, with you.
