The Agony in the Garden
1. Let us put ourselves in the presence of God and put aside all the distractions
that are in our minds and think only of Jesus.
2. Kneel with Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane and feel the pain that
He suffered, the pain and the anguish that He suffered for all of the sins
of all men for all time.
3. Jesus and Mary are calling us to come to Their Hearts. Their Hearts
are filled with love for us.
4. Buckled over in pain in the garden, we cannot even imagine the
anguish in the Heart of Jesus. God is Love.
5. Look at your world this day. See the murder of the little babies in the
womb of their mothers. See how many in America have forgotten that
God even exists. Our every breath and our every heartbeat depend
on Him.
6. Out of greatest love for man, Jesus came into this world a little baby in
the womb of Mary. He suffered so, all through His Passion. He loves
man so much.
7. Think of how it is when you love someone so much and you are rejected
by the person you love. Jesus loved us so much that He came into
this world. He suffered all through the Passion. He gave His life on the
cross. He is rejected by many of the souls that He came to save.
8. He is alive this day and He gives Himself to us with such love. He is
treated with such indifference and such hatred.
9. Let us ask God for the grace to know and love Him more.
10. Let us pray for the youth of this world, the little children whose hearts
have turned to stone at such an early age. Jesus loves them. Even in this
dark world, His love is present. He is always with us.
