Stations of the Cross -
Eighth Station
Jesus speaks to the
women of Jerusalem
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise
you
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
Scripture
“A large crowd of people followed Jesus,
including many women who mourned and
lamented him.
Jesus turned to them
and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not
weep for me;
weep instead for yourselves and
your children.”
A Prayer
My Jesus,
your compassion in your passion
is beyond compare.
Lord, teach me,
help me learn.
When I would snap at those
who hurt me with their ridicule,
those who misunderstand,
or hinder me with misguided helpfulness,
those who intrude upon my privacy – then help me curb my tongue.
May gentleness become my cloak.
Lord, make me kind like you.
