V - We adore You, O Christ, and bless You. Jesus most suffering, Mary Mother most sorrowful, if, by my sins, I
caused you pain Our Father.... Hail Mary.... Glory be V - Jesus Christ Crucified. Is there one who would not weep, |
The Fourth Station: The Mother of Jesus cares for all the redeemed who still journey on this earth. Her spiritual maternity will last until all the elect are safe in the heavenly fatherland. She helps us on the sorrowful way to keep our gaze focused on our true home. As Jesus is shoved toward the hill of death, he suddenly comes face-to-face with his mother. It is a poignant encounter for both. Few things affect us more deeply than the love of a mother for a suffering son or daughter. All her love and life and hopes for the future are centered on that troubled young person. How often in our day are mothers brought face-to-face with children ruined by wars or by self-inflicted disasters like drug addiction! Prayer |
