STATION IV: Jesus Meets His Afflicted Mother
We adore Thee, 0 Christ, and we bless Thee.
Because by Thy holy Cross, Thou hast redeemed the World.
My dearest Lord Jesus, I thank Thee for this
heart-rending meeting on thy journey to Calvary. (Pause for
reflection.) Through the union of Thy Most Sacred Heart with the Heart
of Thy Immaculate Mother I beg of Thee to give Thy priests the grace
to have Mary as their most powerful aid and comfort in life and at the
hour of death. Grant also, 0 dearest Jesus, that Thy sweetest Mother
may, in a special manner, be with those priests who are suffering
persecution for Thy sake. May she comfort them in their hour of trial
and darkness as she comforted Thee on Thy way to execution. |
