St. Leonard's Way of the Cross: Eighth Station

Jesus meets the women of Jerusalem

I hear you, most amiable Savior, I hear you: it is not for you but for myself that I should bitterly weep. My tears only increase your suffering if they are not tears of repentance.

Weep then, my heart! Weep not for your God who goes to his death, but for your sins that bring him there. You are even cruel to yourself unless you wipe out your sins with such sorrow.

Most precious blood of my sweet Jesus, soften the heart that does not weep; enlighten the mind that does not know; bend the will that does not obey. Yes, my Jesus, I’m sorry for my sins, and I’ll be sorry for them as long as I live. I would rather die a thousand times before committing them again. Strengthen me by your grace.

Reading: Luke 23:28-31
