"The Way of the Cross" V111

The Eighth Station of the Cross

JESUS MEETS THE WEEPING WOMEN

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 for your children,
for indeed, the days are coming when people will say,
'Blessed are the barren, the wombs that
never bore and the breasts that never nursed.' At that time
people will say to the mountains, 'Fall upon us!'
 and to the hills, 'Cover us!' for if these things
were done when the wood is green
what will happen when it is dry?"

Luke 23:27-31

Convert us O, Lord,
and give us new life.
Our hope is in You.

   
P.S. Blessing to you this Palm Sunday.
