O, God and Father, as we journey through Holy Week help us to remember the words of Psalm
27: The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom should I fear? The LORD is my life’s refuge;
of whom should I be afraid? I believe that I shall see the bounty of the LORD in the land of the
living. Wait for the LORD with courage; be stouthearted, and wait for the LORD.
