We continue our series on the sorrowful mysteries this week with the Scouring at the Pillar. Before sending Jesus to be scourged, Pilate was faced with the choice of standing up for what was right in his eyes, and even more powerfully through his wife's eyes, or caving into the pressure of the crowds. 

When Pilate saw "that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning,” he gave in to the pressure to please the crowds, rather than listen to the inner voice that was dying to scream for what is true, just, and right.  The King of the Universe was then sent off to be brutally, painfully, and cruelly scourged at the pillar for all to see. 

What torture our good God went through at the hands of many and, more specifically in this Gospel reflection, at the hands of one man whose regrettable role in salvation history will live on forever.  This isn't merely a painfully sad  historical story , but rather a calling for all of us to reflect on during our own journey and to recognize where we too may have turned our backs on Christ in order to please others. 

This one is another meaty one for my own heart as I journey hand in hand with Momma Mary and move ever closer towards Christ. 

Hope you all have a blessed week!

Today, we kick off our Lenten Series on the Sorrowful Mysteries. I have been wanting to enter into a deeper reflection and look at the beautiful mysteries of the Rosary for quite some time. I couldn't think of a more fitting time to dive headfirst into exploring the sorrowful mysteries than Lent itself.

The agony in the garden gives us a real look into the vulnerable and authentic humanness of Christ. With deep sorrow and pain, Jesus falls with his face to the ground and prays to God the Father to take this cup of suffering from him. This is something we can all relate to. We are often faced with great pain and agony and find ourselves pleading in prayer to our Heavenly Father to take our current suffering away. Yet, even knowing the excruciating steps of calvary, the pain of the cross and the weight of death itself, Christ deeply desired to do the Father's will when he says, "Not as I will, but as you will."

This is a beautiful reminder for us all to live as Christ, by surrendering to the most perfect will of our Heavenly Father.

We should find hope and strength in knowing that although it was in a garden that man first broke his relationship with God (Adam), it is through Jesus submitting himself to the Father's will in a garden that man's relationship with God begins to be restored. 

Hope everyone has a blessed week!
