Second Fall
Jesus falls the Second Time

V. We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
R. Because by Thy holy Cross, thou hast redeemed the world.

Jesus falls a second time. A reminder how I will continue to fail because of my weak flesh.

Meditation:
Every time I step off the path or take my eyes off my Lord. I fall...do I physically fall down on the pavement. Maybe not, but worse I fall spiritually down. Something inside me shatters as if I have dropped a glass and thousands of shards of glass scatter. 

Prayer:
My most gentle Jesus, how many times hast Thou pardoned me, and how many times have I fallen again. Oh, by the merits of this new fall, help me to persevere in Thy grace until death. The Way of the Cross of Saint Alphonsus Liquori


Our Father...
Hail Mary...
Glory Be...

v. Have Mercy upon us O Lord.
r. Have Mercy on us.
May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

My personal Prayer
God my prayer here is a very important one. Please always keep me aware of the falling, the shattering so with your help I can get up and do better. Amen
