Scripture: John 12:23 (NIV)
The hour has come for the Son
of Man to be glorified.

Glory, in the language of the gospel, appears in a form that
overturns expectation. It is revealed through humility, suffering, and
unwavering love. The approaching cross becomes the moment where God’s character
is most fully displayed.
Lent brings us to this threshold. The path ahead leads
through vulnerability toward transformation. Glory is no longer associated with
domination but with self-giving love that restores the world.
As Holy Week approaches, the invitation is to remain
attentive. God’s glory is already breaking through wherever love persists,
mercy triumphs, and hope refuses to die.
Prayer
God of radiant love,
Open my eyes to your glory
Strengthen my faith for the road ahead.
Teach me to recognise your presence
In humility and sacrifice.
Prepare my heart
For the mystery of the cross ~ Amen.
Invitation
Spend a moment in silence before God.
Notice where love is at work around you.
Say quietly:
“Your glory is here.”
