Into the grief and silence of death, the prophet whispers: “Drink plenty of water. Get something to eat. Remember that the rain will still come, and the seed will still grow; there will be grains to harvest and fresh dough to knead” (AP).

The prophet gathers the exiles in Babylon,...

Your goodness stretches to the heavens, O God, even when clouds distort our view. Your promises water the earth, even when seeds are slow to grow. Keep us nourished and keep us together while we wait. Amen.

Resumen de la Escritura

This week’s readings take us through the depths but then into the eternal light. We walk each step with Jesus, who suffers betrayal, abandonment, and death. But it is more than that. In his suffering, Jesus also enters into the brokenness of our human condition and feels our pain, such that on the Cross he even feels abandonment by God. He walks through the valley of the shadow of death because of God’s amazing, reckless love for us. This is the power of Holy Week. But that is not the end of the story. Jesus’ steps do not end at the Cross, for he walks out of the tomb! Now we can follow in his steps and participate in his new life. He is risen indeed!
