Passion/Palm Sunday

Please don’t judge me by my sins. Please don’t turn away because I betrayed you, because I denied knowing you. Remember me for my best intentions, for the joy I had when I first met you. Remember that I was afraid. That’s why I ran away. I know I failed. I know my faith is weak. Please forgive me. Christ, you know I love you.
