Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Palm Sunday of The Lord’s Passion
At The Name Of Jesus
Jesus: “Come, My little one, bow your head towards Me and let us talk about something that is difficult for you. Will the sufferings you do for Me be many?” (Jesus) (October 15, 1962).
Today’s Readings: Because of this, God greatly exalted him
and bestowed on him the name
which is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that
Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.(Philippians 20
Prayer Meditation- Lord, we enter Palm Sunday today and Holy Week we know that the crowd called out Your Holy Name only to turn around and yell “Crucify Him” in less than one week. It is easy to say Your Name when things are going well or when we are in a friendly crowd but what happens when the crowd turns against You in our families, in our work places, in our culture? O Lord, You know it is difficult for us but You also tell us to pick up our crosses and follow You, ready to suffer our tiny piece of the Cross You have made ready for us. O Lord, You will be high and lifted up on that Cross this week and You will lay down Your Life and empty Yourself for our redemption and for the glory of God the Father! Lord one day every knee will bend and every tongue confess that You are Lord but let us gladly choose You now and worship You, loving You for all that do not love, do not hope, and do not adore You! Blessed Mother, may we keep You company this week like St. John and the faithful women always with our eyes and our hearts turned to the sorrows of Your Son Jesus!
