On this Good Friday, as we experience the poignant absence of the Blessed Sacrament in our churches, this meditation draws our gaze to the profound mystery of Christ’s continuous prayer. From His baptism to His intense agony in the garden, Jesus shows us that all our apostolic efforts and daily struggles must be rooted in a deep, trusting conversation with the Father. Guided by the wisdom of St Josemaría, we will reflect on the necessity of persevering in prayer—even amidst busyness, dryness, or darkness—so that, avoiding the restless anxiety of Martha or the slumber of the Apostles, we might faithfully stand with our Lady at the foot of the Cross.
