Welcome to Through the Thorns.
2
:Today's rosary meditation will be the
sorrowful mystery of Jesus's caring
3
:of the cross in the name of the father
and of the son and of the Holy spirit.
4
:Amen.
5
:Take a deep breath and
center yourself in prayer.
6
:Picture a dusty road
stretching before you.
7
:The sun beats down and the air is thick
with heat and the noise of the crowd.
8
:You are pressed up shoulder to
shoulder against all the people,
9
:against the people that surround you.
10
:But you work your way through the
crowd, trying to get a view of Jesus.
11
:You reach the front of the crowd and you
see Jesus, bruised and bloodied, carrying
12
:the heavy wooden cross on his shoulders.
13
:You watch as he stumbles under
the weight of the cross, the
14
:wood digging into his torn flesh.
15
:Each step is labored and you can see the
sweat and blood dripping from his face.
16
:You notice a group of women
who are walking alongside him.
17
:You move closer to the group
and you really begin to feel
18
:the weight of the moment.
19
:You hear the crowd shouting behind
you, some mocking, others crying,
20
:and suddenly Jesus falls to the ground.
21
:The cross crushes him
and he struggles to rise.
22
:His eyes lift and they meet yours.
23
:He looks at you.
24
:With such love and such determination,
25
:you ask the woman next to you, if
you can use a handkerchief or a
26
:cloth and she hands one to you.
27
:So you approach Jesus and dab his face,
cleaning it of the sweat and the blood.
28
:What do you feel as you see him like this?
29
:What do you want to say to him?
30
:Simon of Cyrene is pulled from the
crowd to help Jesus carry the cross.
31
:Imagine standing beside them
32
:he comes to help the Lord, lifts up the
cross, and they begin walking again.
33
:You walk beside them.
34
:What is it like to be this
close to him in his suffering?
35
:Let us pray.
36
:I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
creator of heaven and earth, and
37
:in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our
Lord, who was conceived by the Holy
38
:Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
39
:crucified, died, and was buried.
40
:He descended into hell, and on the
third day, he rose again from the dead.
41
:He ascended into heaven and
is seated at the right hand
42
:of God, the Father Almighty.
43
:From there he will come to
judge the living and the dead.
44
:I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy
Catholic Church, the communion of saints,
45
:the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection
of the body, and life everlasting.
46
:Amen.
47
:For the intentions of our Holy Father,
Pope Francis, and all the priests.
48

heaven, hallowed be thy name.
49

done, on earth as it is in heaven.
50

and forgive us our trespasses, as we
51

but deliver us from evil.
