Scripture: John 18:1-11
Journal: What is “the cup” the Father has for you? Will you drink it?
Reflection:
shall i not drink the cup?
if you were willing, O Christ
shall i not drink the cup as well?
if you held back nothing because of love
shall i not be poured out in full?
if you gave all that i might live
shall i too not empty myself of all?
who am i to think that
the same would not be asked of me?
may i never for comfort and ease, Lord Jesus
make you journey to the cross alone
Prayer
Closing
Prayer: O God, whatever the “cup” you have for me this
day, give me the strength and the courage and the grace to drink it all,
knowing that your will and your kingdom are what this life, as well as the
next, is all about. Amen.
