We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You.

Because, by Your holy cross, You have redeemed the world.

Meditation
Consider Jesus as He walked this road with the cross on His shoulders, thinking of us,
and offering to His Father, in our behalf, the death He was about to suffer.

Prayer
My most beloved Jesus,  I embrace all the sufferings You have destined for me until
death.  I beg You, by all You suffered in carrying Your cross,  to help me carry mine with Your perfect peace and resignation. I loveYou, Jesus, my love; I repent of ever having offended You. Never let me separate myself from You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me as You will.

0, how sad and sore distressed Was that Mother highly blessed Of the sole Begotten One.
