Opening Reading and Prayer

Mark chapter 14, versus 32 to 36. They went to a place called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, 'Sit here while I pray.' He took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be distressed and agitated. And he said to them, 'I am deeply grieved, even to death; remain here, and keep awake.' And going a little farther, he threw himself on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. He said, 'Abba, Father, for you all things are possible; remove this cup from me; yet, not what I want, but what you want.'

Almighty Father, accept our prayer of thanksgiving for your beloved Son, our Savior and Lord. As we travel the road of his sacred Passion, we ask you to watch over us, that all we say or do may be in union with Him, Christ, our Redeemer.
