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
