"I Thirst" - The Passion of Jesus Christ

"I Thirst" - The Passion of Jesus Christ
a reported reflection by Daniel S.
"I Thirst" - what does this mean and what does this have to do with "The Passion of Jesus Christ?" This is something that many maybe wondering. In today's post, I would like to talk about this passion presentation that parishioners at my church, Holy Trinity Catholic Church, presented to our parish last night.

On Friday, March 26, from approximately 7:00 to 8:00 p.m., a petite cast and crew presented the passion of our lord, Jesus Christ, at Holy Trinity Catholic Church.

Our youth minister, Dr. P, and myself were in charge of the lighting while 3 of the high school youth were changing the set. Their were also a small band of musicians and cast members whom realistically portrayed the Passion of Jesus Christ. And you don't worry, I haven't forgotten our faithful director, Larry L., who is the music minster at our parish- his preparation was very good and I would like to take this opportunity to thank him for all his hard work and all the hard work of all the cast and crew of this presentation of love.

I recall that after the musical-presentation was completed, our pastor had some closing remarks. One of which that I recall is for everyone to remember that God shows us his love through the Passion of Jesus Christ.
Another point that I would like to mention is Larry telling us, the cast and some of the crew, about why he chose the title "I Thirst" and that is that he got these words from Mother Therese. If you know what he exactly means by this, could you add a comment below and let me know.

I enjoyed the music throughout this presentation. One lovely song that I'm not sure was included in the presentation or not is a song called "Love Never Fails" by Brandon Heath.

If you ever have seen the Passion of Jesus Christ presented or read about it in the Bible, then you can see just how much Jesus sacrificed for us and how because of all the pain that Jesus had dealt with in his final days or hours on Earth, it really has shown us just how much he loves us. I believe that this presentation of the Passion of Jesus Christ was a presentation of real Love. Finally, as we enter Holy Week and are preparing for Easter, let us remember that God shows us his love through the Passion of Jesus Christ.

If you would like to share your thoughts about the Passion of Jesus Christ, I welcome your comments below.

Take Care and God Bless,
