Wednesday of the Second Week of Lent

Gospel Reading: Matthew 20:22–23

Jesus said in reply, “You do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the chalice that I am going to drink?” They said to him, “We can.” He replied, “My chalice you will indeed drink, but to sit at my right and at my left, this is not mine to give but is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”

 

My sacrificial Lord, may my love for You and others be so complete that I hold nothing back.

May I give my mind only to Your Truth and my will to Your Way.

And may the gift of Your Precious Blood be my strength on this journey so that I may imitate Your perfect and sacrificial love.

Jesus, I trust in You.

Amen.
