Our Personal Cross


Before God decided to send you the Cross
that you are now carrying,
He inspected it with His all-wise eyes,
He examined it with His divine logic,
He selected it with His infinite righteousness,
He warmed it with His loving heart,
He weighed it carefully with His merciful hands
to confirm that it is not heavier than what you can lift,
And, having taking into account your strength,
He blessed it and placed it on your shoulders.
You can carry it.
Hold on to it as you ascend
from Golgotha to the Resurrection.
Amen.
