As we enter into the sorrowful mysteries of Christ’s Passion, we reflect on His agony in the garden and His scourging at the pillar. We see Jesus pleading with the Father in solitude, embracing the Father’s will despite the weight of sorrow, and freely choosing to suffer for our salvation. Through these mysteries, we are called to receive His sacrifice not with indifference, but with grateful hearts open to the transforming gift of His love. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Agony in the Garden and the Scourging at the Pillar and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.
