Today we begin the holiest week of the Church’s year. We will participate in the events that won salvation for us. Knowing how the story ends, we may be tempted to jump ahead to next Sunday’s joy. Yet, each event this week is important. We take care to internalize both the highs and the lows. It is through the entire process that we will be able to appreciate next week more fully. Take time this week for reflection on what is occurring and who it is that is doing all this for us. This will help to make this truly a Holy Week.
