<em>Meditation</em></p>

<p class="normal_text">Lord Jesus, the cortege has stopped again, for the human straight fades away. The companion who helps you seems discouraged and his face is wormed out. The soldier&rsquo;s spears rise and contradict the clear sign that your passion brings to us: victory is that line which unites heaven and earth, but it not the spear that draws it, it is the cross that joins the human and divine dimensions. Only your cross can be pontiff for us to reach victory, even if we don&rsquo;t understand the reason for which we must fall so many times, even if we don&rsquo;t understand the reason for which we must see you fall apart.&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Lord, with you, in this hour, I pray for all who do not understand the suffering:<br />
<strong>V. </strong>Lord, have mercy on us!<br />
<strong>R. </strong>Lord, have mercy on us!<br />
<br />
Our Father...</p>
