Jesus Consoles the Women of Jerusalem
Luke 23:27-31
V.We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.
R.Because by Your holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
Consider
Consider how those women wept with compassion at seeing Jesus in such a pitiable state, streaming with blood, as He walked along. But Jesus said to them: "Weep not for Me, but for yourselves and for your children."
Prayer
My Jesus, laden with sorrows, I weep for the offenses I have committed against You, because of the pains they have deserved, and still more because of the displeasure they have caused You who have loved me so much. It is Your love, more than the fear of hell, that causes me to weep for my sins. My Jesus, I love You more than myself; I repent of having offended You. Never permit me to offend You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me what You will.
Our Father. Hail Mary. Glory be to the Father.
Stabat Mater
Eia, Mater, fons amoris, Me sentire vim doloris Fac, ut tecum lugeam.
O thou Mother! fount of love! Touch my spirit from above, Make my heart with thine accord.
