Happy Easter Thursday!!!
Throwback Thursday: Celtic Cross w/Crown of Thorns & HOLY SPIRIT Dove (Philippians 4:13) ~ Fresh Ink as seen on Formal post
On Good Friday, I posted the Way of the Cross, so if you followed along, I invite you to consider how we can apply JESUS CHRIST‘s Passion to our own lives in the form of compassion for Him and His people.
[Stations in bold. Lessons in italics. (Some lessons are the same in different stations — if you’ve learned other lessons, please care to share!]
- JESUS is condemned to death. Accept criticism ~ We all have our own cross to bear.
- JESUS is laden with the Cross. Accept accountability ~ We all can help solve problems.
- JESUS falls for the first time. PERSEVERE ~ DON’T give up, even in struggle.
- JESUS meets His mother. Seek comfort from others ~ We are not alone.
- JESUS is helped by Simon of Cyrene to carry the Cross. Render aid to those in need ~ We all can help.
- Veronica wipes the face of JESUS. Render aid to those in need ~ We all can help.
- JESUS falls for the second time. PERSEVERE ~ DON’T give up, even in struggle.
- JESUS consoles the women of Jerusalem. Render aid to those in need ~ We all can help.
- JESUS falls for the third time. PERSEVERE ~ DON’T give up, even in struggle.
- JESUS is stripped of His garments. RESPECT ~ We all entered this world in purity.
- JESUS is nailed to the Cross. GOD is the only Judge ~ We need NOT bully or hate.
- JESUS dies on the Cross. Remember the LORD’s LOVE ~ He sacrificed for ALL of us. ♥
- JESUS is taken down from the Cross. Consider others while they are still alive ~ We will all leave this Earth sometime.
- JESUS is laid in the Holy Tomb. Sharing is caring ~ We all can spread the wealth of health, joy, peace & blessings, for as we were born with nothing but GOD’s LOVE, we will take nothing more than GOD’s LOVE when we depart.
GOD Bless Y’all!!!

♪†JESUS, remember me, when you come into your Kingdom…♫
That message stays with me as I reflect on Christ on the cross. On this Good Friday, I encourage you to read along with me the Passion of the Lord, according to John ~ from the Book of John, Chapters 18-19 (John 18:1-19:42) and open up your mind, heart and soul. If tears stream down your face, like I’ve experienced, it shows your overflowing cup of faith in Him, that you too yearn to be His humble servant, and to know Him is to love Him. ♥
Here are the Stations of the Cross that I provided for my family last year. I included pictures that I took at Our Lady of San Juan del Valle and Holy Spirit Catholic Church in McAllen, Texas, my first home in the Rio Grande Valley.
Way of the Cross
Happy Easter☼
