Our Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, hear our prayer:

Please weave the women of St. Raphael into a beautiful tapestry of faith and friendship. Let us be woven by your Holy Spirit with our eyes and hearts set upon Christ our Savior. Help us shine with the light of Christ and draw souls to Jesus. We ask this in the name of Jesus, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Amen.

Via Crucis - the Second Station

The next installment of 'My Walk with our Lord' by our resident anonymous poet.


Second Station - Jesus Carries His Cross

Made to carry the cross on which He will stretch out His hands,

He lifts up the weight and the miseries of the lands.

I did this; I am part of this horrible mess-

Mistakes and omissions; to The Word I transgress.

My hearts pours out with remorse and regret as I admit my blame,

And give thanks that His amazing love is greater than my shame.

I continue this journey with Him walking in gratitude,

Knowing with hearts united, we are not in solitude.

By depending on Him and carrying the crosses life demands,

I strive to live for His Glory and rest in His Hands.

    I really love this part, "Knowing with hearts united, we are not in solitude.
    By depending on Him and carrying the crosses life demands,
    I strive to live for His Glory and rest in His Hands. "

    Thank you so much for sharing. I think I'm going to add this to my Lenten prayers. =)
