Ninth Station: Let us
meditate on Jesus falling the third time.
We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You.
Because by Your holy cross, You have redeemed
the world.
The Lord of Love Who stood up
again with all His remaining energy for the fulfillment of the Father's Will
and for the salvation of the human race, even after miserably thrown down on
the ground together with the Cross!
Lord, with Your Body torn
miserably and covered with blood all over, You again fell carrying not only the
weight of the heavy Cross but also the sins of the whole human race. You
suffered the pains because of my sins.
The Lord was struggling to
stand up again with all His remaining energy under the heavy Cross, but He fell
again together with the Cross and was thrown down on the ground with the
Cross. Even while suffering these pains, He offered them up for the
conversion of sinners and the salvation of the human race. How can it not
be deplorable if we do not repent our sins? Help us become children who
console the Lord and the Blessed Mother by gracefully offering up the sorrows,
pains, agonies, anguishes, and distresses given to us, while meditating deeply
on the miserable sufferings by the Lord. (Meditate for a while.)
"It was a gruesome
pain for this Mother, unable even to look with open eyes, when my Son Jesus was
walking on the terrible Way of the Cross to Calvary receiving all kinds of
ridicules, with His Body covered with blood from head to feet because of
scourging, exhausted and worn out, and falling miserably with the Cross.
It was a pain of my whole body becoming torn apart and all of its bones being
crushed. That was not all! The sounds of a hammer nailing my Son
Jesus to the Cross gave me the pains of my whole body being hit with a hammer,
and the spear piercing the side of the Lord hanging on the Cross caused me an
extreme pain of my Heart being pierced and crushed.
I, who was the Mother but was unable to do anything before the miserable
condition (of the Lord), have walked the Way of Calvary, which Jesus walked
shedding blood, day after day since that day, praying earnestly to God the
Father for the conversion of sinners. Even now, two thousand years later,
I am still walking with you." (The Blessed Mother's message on March
28, 2002)
Let us all remain awake and
become the apostles of the Blessed Mother's Immaculate Heart who sew up the
torn Hearts of Jesus and the Blessed Mother by always being awake and
converting our lives into prayers every day and at every moment, following the
words of the Blessed Mother.
Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and
Glory be.
Mother, we ask you to engrave
the Lord's Wounds deeply into our hearts.
