Holy Week is a time when we are called upon to open our hearts to God - with the hope that we will do so even after Lent. The Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and thereafter His Resurrection should be a wake up call for all of us to look at ourselves and realize that we are all sinners. That the agony, pains and sufferings of Christ are but the consequences of our sins, our transgressions, our indifference, our failures and our pride, arrogance, selfishness, greed etc.
So, it is incumbent upon us now to do what is right, what is good and what is Holy. This means we need to live a prayerful life, obeying the Commandments and following God's will.
Life in this world is short and temporary, deceitful and cunning, and dangerous. That is why we cannot be complacent. We need to be vigilant against all forms of temptations and snares of the Devil.
Thus, we must call upon the Blessed Mother to pray for us, to guide us and cover is with her mantle of protection.
God is with us. He is great and merciful. Have faith and let's put on the Armor of God.
Christ never abandoned us. So let us not leave Him at the Garden. Let us join Him in prayers every moment of our lives.
