A Good Friday Prayer

Hundreds of people participated in the 33rd annual Good Friday outdoor Way of the Cross walk in downtown Edmonton on March 29, 2013.

O Christ,
we choose to love
and not to harden our hearts,
even when the incomprehensible happens.
As we remain in your presence with perseverance,
day after day,
and pray with simplicity of heart,
you come and make us into people
who are a leaven of confident trust
by the way we live.
And all that your Gospel calls us to,
all that you ask of us,
you give.

-- Brother Roger of The Taizé Community
