Via Crucis - the Twelfth Station

Posted by our anonymous poet - we are all so blessed by your faith!

Twelfth Station - Jesus Dies on the Cross

For me- every injustice, every indignity, every torment,

Every blow, every insult, every burden, every lament.

For me- every sorrow, every drop of blood, every fall,

To teach love and forgiveness and bring salvation to all.

“Into your hands I commend my spirit”, Jesus cries,

Suffering agony He looks to The Father as He dies.

Dying for my sins and omissions, and for a world of strife,

How can I not want to dwell in Him and offer my own life?

Live to serve Him, who supplies my every need and breath,

For the sake of His Sorrowful Passion, loving Christ, unto death.
