XIII. Jesus is taken down from the Cross
|
 |
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless You, because by
Your holy cross, You have redeemed the world |
Meditation:
The crowd had gone; the commotion and turmoil had ceased. I stood quietly
and looked up at the dead body of my son, our savior. Then two men brought
His body down from the cross, and placed Him in my arms. A deep sorrow
engulfed my being. Yet, I also felt deep joy. Life had ended cruelly for
my son, but it had also brought life to all of us. I knew this had to
be, and I prayed silently. |
Prayer:
Lord, your earthly life has ended. Yet, it your passion still goes on
whenever I choose sin over you. I have done my part in your crucifixion
and now, my savior; I beg your forgiveness with all my heart. Help me
to live a life worthy of you and your mother.
