Between two criminals, a mocking title above his head, with only Mary and John and Mary Magdalene to support him, Jesus surrenders his last breath: “Into your hands I commend my spirit.”
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
I stand there, at the foot of the cross, side by side with all of humanity, and behold our salvation. I carefully watch and listen to all that is said. And then, I experience the one who gives life pass from life to death, for me. I console Mary and John and Mary. And let them console me. This is the hour to express the deepest feelings within me.
Prayer
O most glorious Jesus! I give my entire life to you. I will die to the world. The world and its vanities seem so insufficient as I see you hanging on the cross, covered with wounds. O Jesus, receive me into your wounded Heart: I belong entirely to you; for you alone do I desire to live and to die. Jesus remember me when you come into your kingdom.
