Jesus meets the Women of Jerusalem

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

A great number of people followed Jesus.  Among them a group of women weeping and wailing for Him. But Jesus said to them: Daughters of Jerusalem  weep not for Me but for yourselves and for your children  for the days are surely coming when they will say  Blessed are the barren and  the wombs that never bore.

Children of Christendom   weep not for Me as I bear this Cross for your salvation, but weep for your children and descendents,  For as I wear this crown of thorns, this grotesque and distorted mockery of my Kingship, so will your descendants  bear their own thorny crowns of distorted evil :  murder, sexual abuse and slavery. You will see them tortured by authority, starved because of the greed of others;  ill and dying from preventable diseases so that greedy rulers may wear the gold, which could have bought their cure.
Your sons will be corrupted into terrorism
Your daughters degraded as third rate and worthless.
Whole families will be maimed or destroyed by suicide bombers.

Many will say to you: Why does the Father allows such evil in His world.  Remember my dear children it was not my Father who made my crown of thorns, it was the evil in humanity. Though evil will always be with you,  believe in My Father for did He not lead your ancestors out of Egypt and purify them for the promised land? Wherever you see a cross or a crown of thorns He will send a Simon or a Veronica until the last sacrificial lamb breaks the seal of the final scroll
