Stations of the Cross – #8
Jesus speaks to the women of Jerusalem.
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you;
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
| Reflection
Scripture:
“A large crowd of people followed Jesus, including many women who mourned and lamented him. Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep instead for yourselves and your children.” |

A Prayer
“My Jesus,
your compassion in your passion
is beyond compare.
Lord, teach me,
help me learn.
When I would snap at those
who hurt me with their ridicule,
those who misunderstand,
or hinder me with misguided helpfulness,
those who intrude upon my privacy – then help me curb my tongue.
May gentleness become my cloak.
Lord, make me kind like you.”
