The Way of the Cross – Station #14

The Way of the Cross

Station #14: Jesus is laid in the tomb.

Jesus is laid in the tomb

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You.
Because by Your Holy Cross You
have redeemed the world.

My Lord Jesus Christ:

I want to begin a new life of becoming more completely the person whom God the Father created me to be. In this, I will find freedom from everything and everyone that has caused me to suffer, because no matter what happens to me, I am with You, and Your love for me is sufficient. Your love has redeemed me. Your love has taken my pain and enhanced it with hope. My suffering is not futile when I endure it for love of You and for love of others. Help me to more fully understand this, and let this motivate me toward greater imitation of You, all the way to the Cross and the glorious Resurrection that always follows!

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Start the music and sing:

Virgin, of all virgins blest,
O refuse not my request:
let me share your grief divine.

Jesus, let’s pray together the Closing Prayer >>

9-Day Consecration to St. Joseph9-Day Consecration to St. Joseph

Each day of this novena contains a brief story about various apparitions of St. Joseph, with special prayers.

With this consecration, we seal ourselves as his children. We place into his fatherly protection ourselves, our families, our jobs and ministries, and the Church. We also consecrate to his fatherhood those who are not following Christ, especially our own family members, because Joseph’s desire in heaven is that all of his children love his son, Jesus, and follow him to everlasting life.

ForgivenFORGIVEN
A Meditation on the Passion of Christ Through the Eyes of Peter and Judas

Written with a powerfully life-changing twist, this is not the usual Passion story. “Forgiven” shows the passion of Christ as seen through the eyes of Peter and Judas. Each react in different ways to the final days and crucifixion of Jesus. One chooses forgiveness and the other ends his life in terrible guilt.

The story ends with the reunion of Jesus and Peter after the resurrection when Jesus calls Peter to become the first leader of the Church.

This is a fictional account based on the true events of the Passion of Jesus Christ, for the purpose of meditation.
