They are precious for the Church that re-lives the liturgy of Jesus\u2019 passion, death and resurrection. They are precious to all of us in the Movement because we have a spirituality that is centered on unity and on Jesus\u00a0 Forsaken.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Today is Holy Thursday<\/strong>, our feast day. Like today, many years ago, Jesus gave his disciples the new commandment, the commandment which is the fundamental law and the basis of every other rule for each of us. Like today, Jesus prayed for unity: \u201cMay they all be one.\u201d Like today, he instituted the Eucharist which makes him present among us and in fact brings about our unity with Him and with one another. And like today, he instituted the priesthood that makes the Eucharist possible. All of this in one day.<\/p>\n<p>What more do we want? It\u2019s our feast day and we have often lived this day with great emotion in our heart, an emotion we don\u2019t experience at any other time of year.<\/p>\n<p>Now is the time to say thank you to Jesus, a huge thank you that wells up from the depths of our hearts and reaches up to heaven.<\/p>\n<p>What would our life be like without the new commandment, without the Eucharist, without the Ideal of unity?<br \/>\nBut tomorrow is another day beyond compare: Good Friday, Jesus Crucified and Forsaken. There\u2019s no better day than tomorrow, at three in the afternoon, when we solemnly consecrate again ourselves to him, and renew our resolve to spend the life we have by loving him, always, at once, and with joy. When we kiss the crucifix, may Jesus receive from our hearts, from all of us around the world, this solemn promise.<\/p>\n<p>It will be the best way to celebrate <strong>Good Friday<\/strong> with him, and he will help us become saints for His glory, for the joy of Mary and as a gift for one another.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Then, after Holy Saturday comes Easter Sunday<\/strong>. He is risen, he is the resurrection and the life, for us too. Perhaps for the first time, let\u2019s thank him for the life we will have later and which will not end. Let\u2019s promise him to think about this often and to make the best possible plans, not only for this life but for the most important one.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s tell him that we too want to be his glory and his joy in future, and we want to live this life so that he may have more joy and glory from very many people.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Easter to everyone and to each one. I wish that this Easter be the most beautiful of your life. May everything blossom, like this beautiful spring.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Chiara Lubich<br \/>\nLake Constance (Switzerland), 16 April 1981<\/p>\n<p>Source: www.centrochiaralubich.org<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meditation on Holy Week by Chiara Lubich.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":154312,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"template-full.php","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[152],"tags":[176],"class_list":["post-154305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spiritwalita","tag-holy-week"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Easter Triduum - Focolare Movement<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/focolaremalta.org\/malti-il-kmandament-il-gdid\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"[:mt] Il-Kmandament il-\u0120did [:en]The Easter Triduum[:] - Focolare Movement\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[:mt]B\u0127al-lum, \u0126amis ix-Xirka, \u0120esu\u2019 talab g\u0127all-unita\u2019: \u201cMissier, \u0127a jkunu lkoll \u0127a\u0121a wa\u0127da\u201d.
