Jesus Carries His Cross<br />
1. Jesus shows us how He carried His cross. He wants us to carry our<br />
crosses this day with joy.<br />
2. It is hard <strong>for</strong> the youth to talk about Jesus. Many times we are<br />
laughed at by our peers. We must pray to the Holy Spirit. He will<br />
guide what we say.<br />
3. God is one God in three Divine Persons: Father, Son, <strong>and</strong> Holy Spirit.<br />
When we are baptized <strong>and</strong> in the state <strong>of</strong> grace, They live within us in a<br />
special way.<br />
4. Many times we feel alone, but we are never alone. The Father, Son, <strong>and</strong><br />
Holy Spirit are with us in a special way if we are in the state <strong>of</strong> grace.<br />
5. Mary loves her precious little children! She wants her children to know<br />
the love <strong>of</strong> her Son, Jesus.<br />
6. Mary looked into the eyes <strong>of</strong> her beloved Son on the way to Calvary.<br />
She saw His head crowned with thorns <strong>and</strong> His eyes covered with blood.<br />
7. Jesus wants us to think about the walk on the way to Calvary. By thinking<br />
about this walk, we will realize that He gave Himself because He loves us.<br />
8. He is a personal God. He is alive this day. He wants to live in our<br />
hearts. Let us pray that we receive grace to let Him into our hearts.<br />
9. Jesus carried the cross with joy. He wants us to carry our crosses with<br />
joy. The world tells us that we should fill ourselves with pleasures. Jesus<br />
tells us that we should fill our hearts with His love.<br />
10. All through the day, let us walk with Jesus <strong>and</strong> Mary. We are never<br />
alone. They are with us in all <strong>of</strong> our trials <strong>and</strong> all <strong>of</strong> our joys.<br />
A special meditation be<strong>for</strong>e the Glory Be:<br />
Many times we fall. Jesus asks us to come to Him <strong>and</strong> tell Him that we<br />
love Him. We should tell Him we are sorry <strong>for</strong> <strong>of</strong>fending Him with our<br />
sinful ways.<br />
The Crucifixion <strong>of</strong> Our Lord on the Cross<br />
1. See Jesus as He hangs on the cross, His h<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> feet pounded with<br />
the nails.<br />
2. We go our willful ways. We think that we are right. We think we should<br />
justify ourselves. Jesus, the Son <strong>of</strong> God, hangs on the cross with the<br />
most loving, kind, <strong>and</strong> humble Heart.<br />
3. He calls us to <strong>of</strong>fer ourselves to the Father in union with the sacrifice <strong>of</strong><br />
Himself on the cross.<br />
4. What pleases God the most is the gift <strong>of</strong> His Son, sacrificed <strong>for</strong> love<br />
<strong>of</strong> us.
