I attended Holy Thursday Mass, the Mass of the "Last Supper" this evening. Afterwards, I stayed for some time and knelt before Christ in the reserved area in which He is kept until Easter Vigil. I found myself praying for Jesus. Asking God to give Him the strength to endure His upcoming trials. I yearned to help Jesus in His hour of need. I wanted to be part of the cup the Angel gave to Him during the Agony in the Garden that helped Him to continue. I felt empathy for my Lord and Savior, who is also man. As a man we can prayer for Him like any other man right? I have never thought of this before, I don't think it's wrong, but I'm not sure. During this time when we remeber His Passion, I just want to do all I can to bring help to my Lord. Prayer is retroactive, outside of time, right?
Most Holy Father, I ask that my meek and humble attempt to bring Your Son some consolation and strength through prayer, during His most trying and difficult hour, may be meet with a Father's loving open arms. I just want to help Him so, I know He must endure this Passion, just let Him know I care, sinner that I am, I love Him and want to do all I can to help.
