Jesus Prays To His Father
When Jesus’ prayed on the cross it inspired
forgiveness, His
final words as he died on the cross were “Forgive those who have hurt you” He
asked his Father to those who are crucifying me”. It is a difficult act to forgive those
who do us wrong, Those who have damaged us, difficult to
forgive, spoken As over
10,000 pilgrims attending his crucifixion looked on.
He told his followers, “The light of God will illuminate their
hearts”,
and invited them to live in the same attitude of Mercy and
love that God has towards them.” This attitude is Summed up
in a line from Our Father in
Heaven– “Forgive us our Trespasses as
we forgive those who trespass
against us.” Over the past 2014 years, Jesus influence
has retained time on the three prayers he gave while on the from the cross.

Once he recognized this, the thief
prayed, “Jesus, remember me when
you come into your kingdom.” Jesus answered him: “Amen, I say to you, today
you will be with me in Paradise.” In doing so, Christ is aware of entering
directly into communion with the
Father and of reopening the path for the man
to God’s paradise.”
This
gives all .people hope, since it shows that the goodness of
God can touch us even at the
last moment of Life.”
And that sincere prayer, even after
a life of wrong, meets
the Open arms of a Father who awaits
their return. Christ’s Final
prayer on the cross “Father, into your hands I commend my Spirit.”
He noted how each of the Gospel writers describes different aspects of this moment in history,
including the veil of The
temple being torn down the middle, three hours of darkness Over
the land and earthquakes.
The chaff has been sorted, harvest
time is gone. The end of my time has come. The rapture day
is near. I am heir to another kingdom, soon, I will
reminisce the former Days
of my immortal life on earth, Jesus by asking the Father
to forgive those Who are crucifying him, invites us to the difficult
act of praying for Those who do us
wrong, who have damaged us, knowing always How to forgive,”
the told over 6,000 pilgrims
attending today’s too that “the light of God may illuminate their
hearts, inviting us, that is, to live in our Prayers, the
same attitude of mercy and love that God has Towards us.” The death of Jesus is explicitly characterized
as a Cosmic and
liturgical event; it marks the beginning of a new Worship
in a temple not built by men. The prayer is also a loud cry
Of extreme and total trust in God, fully aware
of not being Abandoned. This
is signified by the use of the word “Father,” Which recalls Christ’s first declaration that
he is the son of God When
he was a 12-year-old boy and was found in the temple by
His Mary and Joseph. Then he remained for three days in
the Temple of Jerusalem, the veil of which is now torn
and so we see That from beginning to end, what completely
determines the
Feelings of Jesus, his words, his actions is his unique relationship
With the Father.” All in all, the
three final prayers of Jesus are Tragic for every man but are also pervaded by
the deep calm that
Comes from trust in the Father
and the will to abandon himself Totally
to him. They are a “supreme act of love.”

The request for
forgiveness from the Father. This
should give consolation for all times and for all men,
because Jesus sees ignorance as a door that
can open us up to repentance. The second prayer
of Christ is directed towards the
good thief who repents after sensing he is before the Son of God ,
who reveals the face of God.” liturgical event,” said “it

One of his sheep will be gone. It is written in God's book. My
message will spread throughout the world,
The
sun is softly setting, and the fields are turning golden. Hear the rustling in the trees; look to the
skies for Jesus. All things will be made new; my toil on earth is finished now It is written in God’s book. Soon
I’ll leave, without my pen and writings. There
is no need to fear, harvest time is over. My life has been a rainbow with but a
bit of strife. Count your blessings; it will be a magnificent
life.
It is written in God’s book.
