On the road to Jerusalem, Jesus,Â
you have spoken again and againÂ
of your end and new beginningÂ
to disciples who do not or will not understand.Â
Now you have entered the cityÂ
and you summon all who would follow youÂ
to wait and watch with you.Â
Help us to enter into the intensityÂ
of the week ahead of usÂ
that we may truly wait and watch with youÂ
as all is revealed, all is changed.Â
Before the revealing of love’s way,Â
love’s cost,Â
love’s victoryÂ
and love’s gloryÂ
may our lives be changed and reborn also.Â
AmenÂ
