From Junior <strong>Shepherds</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Christ</strong> Associate Meetings 37<br />
The Scourging at the Pillar<br />
1. They led Him away as a common criminal <strong>and</strong> they tied Him securely<br />
to the pillar.<br />
2. They took harsh instruments <strong>and</strong> they began to beat His body with<br />
such instruments that tore His flesh.<br />
3. Look as vividly as you can at the scourged body <strong>of</strong> Jesus. See Him<br />
with the big patches <strong>of</strong> skin that have been torn from His body.<br />
Think <strong>of</strong> the love that He has <strong>for</strong> us. He withstood this treatment <strong>for</strong><br />
love <strong>of</strong> us.<br />
4. He loves the children <strong>of</strong> this world. Let the little children come to Him.<br />
He wants them to come to Mass, to the Eucharist, <strong>and</strong> to be so close to<br />
Him.<br />
5. We go to the Eucharist <strong>and</strong> we receive Jesus. Let us open up our hearts<br />
<strong>and</strong> tell Him how much we love Him. We need Him in this world that<br />
is so dark. We need His light to shine in our hearts <strong>and</strong> to shine in our<br />
world today.<br />
6. We will be the children <strong>of</strong> light that shine in this dark world today if we<br />
live in Him.<br />
7. Look into the eyes <strong>of</strong> the scourged Jesus. See His body covered with<br />
wounds <strong>and</strong> blood. See His face covered with scratches <strong>and</strong> deep wounds.<br />
As we look into His beloved, tender eyes, surrounded by the wounds, do<br />
we know a little more <strong>of</strong> His immense love that He has <strong>for</strong> us?<br />
8. Mary loves the little children <strong>of</strong> this world. She wants us to come to her.<br />
She will lead us closer to her beloved Son.<br />
9. It is in meditating on these Sorrowful Mysteries <strong>and</strong> thinking about the<br />
love that Jesus has <strong>for</strong> us, that we will realize more <strong>and</strong> more, how<br />
much He truly loves us.<br />
10. We must come to Him <strong>and</strong> He will give us His abundant love.<br />
The Crowning with Thorns<br />
1. Jesus sat on a mock throne <strong>and</strong> they pounded into His head a sharp<br />
crown <strong>of</strong> piercing thorns.<br />
2. Think <strong>of</strong> the wounds <strong>of</strong> Jesus, all over His body. Now they have wounded<br />
His most precious head. Blood ran down His face <strong>and</strong> into His eyes<br />
<strong>and</strong> into His ears.<br />
3. The blood ran from His mouth from the blows they gave Him to His<br />
head.<br />
4. It is hard to be in this world today. Many in the world have turned<br />
to sin.
