The Eleventh Station, Jesus Is Nailed to the Cross


We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You!
Because by your Holy Cross, You have redeemed the world!

Lord, your sacred body was already ravaged by the scouraging.  And now the soldiers drive the nails into your hands and feet.  The pain with each hammer blow explodes like a bomb of fire in your brain. 

Lord, your love was so great to embrace all this for the sake of us poor sinners.  What have we ever done to deserve your love?  Help us, Lord, to embrace the crosses that are part of our every day life.  Let us accept illness, limitations, losses so as to share in your passion.  Lord, give us the strength and courage to stretch out our hands.
