When all the apostles were present, Jesus prayed as follows, “Father, the hour has come: Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You,” (John 17:1-2).
This priestly prayer was prayed by Jesus just before His death.
Jesus asked the Father for courage and strength to persevere and endure the suffering He was about to face, so as to glorify God.
We too need courage and strength to get through trials and tribulation, especially so, during this trying time.
When we face difficult times, through prayers and our efforts, we can accomplish the challenging tasks.
As we prepare for Pentecost next Sunday (31/5), may the outpouring of the Holy Spirit empower us in all our weaknesses and rekindle our hearts with love and peace.
This Sunday is World Communication Day. We pray the Lord fills us with His Holy Spirit so that we can proclaim the Good News courageously to the whole world.
