I had suggested earlier, that we try to spend some time focusing on our hands this week. As you celebrate Holy Thursday and Good Friday make the sign of the cross with great love and reverence. Ask the Holy Trinity to help you contemplate the mysteries of Christ's Passion.
Look closely when the Body of Christ is placed into your hands on Holy Thursday. Think of the tremendous sacrifice Jesus made so that you could participate in the new and everlasting covenant with God. Jesus offers each of us His own body and blood, so that we in turn, will offer our own lives to Him in order to build up the Kingdom. As the Body of Christ is placed in your hand, allow your thoughts to turn towards Mary, and the moment the body of her son was placed in her hands. The sacrifice made for our salvation should never be taken for granted. Be sure to spend some time with Mary meditating on the precious Body of Christ.
