Today's readings ask us to be inspired by Jesus Christ.
The gospel quotes the first reading, which says that Jesus is the annointed one of God. The second reading inspires and reminds us of who God is, who the God who appointed Jesus is. Jesus, the son of God, and the appointed one of God, did not have an easy life on earth, but because of his great life for us and the father, he obeyed God's will.
This Maundy Thursday, let us reflect on the comming passion of Christ. Jesus was scared, thats why he perspired blood, but that did not stop him from submitting to God's will. In our lives, may we be inspired by Jesus, to continue to follow God, even if it is not easy, even if it is painful, knowing that God's plan is perfect, and he would be with us every step of the way. Let us echo today's psalm: "For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord"
God bless!
