On Palm Sunday we hear the story of Jesus’ Passion. Jesus prays in this time of pain—He is nailed to the cross, beaten, and humiliated. Through it all, He calls out in prayer. The psalm that Jesus quotes signifies a prayer of faith, of belief in God’s deliverance. During this challenging week of the suffering of Jesus, let us rely on prayer, trusting God’s goodness and His love for us.

We pray together: St. Jude, your faith never wavered, even as you witnessed Jesus’ passion and death. Pray for me, that my faith continues to grow.
