Today is the Feast of the Black Nazarene.
In Quiapo, Philippines, millions of Filipinos honor the Black Nazarene, an image of Jesus Christ carrying the cross. This devotion continues because it reflects faith, patience, and endurance during times of hardship.
The Black Nazarene reminds us that Jesus understands suffering and walks with those who carry heavy burdens.
Today, we pray.
Poong Nazareno,
You see the prayers we keep in our hearts.
You know the weight we carry each day.
Give us strength when we feel weak.
Give us patience as we wait.
Give us faith when the road feels hard.
Guide our steps.
Calm our hearts.
Remind us that we are not alone.
Poong Nazareno, pray for us.
Have mercy on us.
We trust in You.
