THEY WERE IN A DAZE
Pause. Reflect
that you are in the presence of God.
Reading. “They
were on the road, going up to Jerusalem; Jesus was walking on ahead of them;
they were in a daze, and those who followed were apprehensive.” (Mark 10:32-43)
Reflection. This
is a uniquely dramatic passage. Jesus sets his face towards Jerusalem intent on
fulfilling his destiny. His followers have a sense of foreboding but they don’t
know what to expect. We would prefer not to have high tension but it can be the
threshold of new life..
Prayer. Lord, help me not to panic in times of tension and uncertainty. Help me to see that you are present in every fragile moment. Amen
