Jesus falls the second time
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
because by Your holy Cross, You have redeemed the world.
This is the second time you have fallen on the road. As the cross grows heavier and heavier it becomes more difficult to get up. But you continue to struggle and try until you're up and walking again. You don't give up.
'I was hard pressed and was falling, but the Lord helped Me.'(Psalm 118:13). 'Come to Me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.'(Mat 11:28)
My most gentle Jesus, how many times You have pardoned me, and how many times have I fallen again, and begun again to offend You! By the merits of this new fall, give me the necessary help to persevere in Your grace until death. Grant that in all temptations which assault me I may always commend myself to You. I love You, Jesus my love, with my whole heart; I repent of having offended You. Never permit me to offend You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me what You will.
Our Father... Hail Mary... Glory Be...
Lord Jesus, crucified. Have mercy on us.
