Jesus Is Made To Bear The Cross
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you,
because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
Consider how Jesus, as he walked this road with the cross
on his shoulder, was thinking of you and offering for you to
God the death he was about to suffer..
My most amiable Jesus, I embrace all the tribulations that you have destined for me until death. Because of the pain you did suffer in carrying your cross, I beg you to give me the strength to carry mine with perfect peace and resignation.
Through her heart, his sorrow sharing,
I love you, Jesus, my love, more than I love myself. With all my heart
I am sorry that I have offended you. Never let me be separated from
you again. Grant that I may always love you, and then do with me what
you will. I accept everything that pleases you.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory be to the Father.
All his bitter anguish bearing,
Now at length the sword has passed.
