Whoever trusts in God can 'see' himself not as drowning in God's holiness, rather as being carried on an ocean of compassion.

The Cross on which Christ died is a worthy and apt symbol for Christians: a symbol of the love which brought Him to earth, even to death, for our sakes; and of His power. He Who rose from the grave can raise us up as well.

Christ's Work of the Cross is the central point of all history: the point to which all things were leading from Creation; and the point around which each of us must gather in each new era - in the Mass - in order to speak as children to the Father, relying on Christ's offering and intercession, as we wait for the End of Time.

Whoever curses, strikes, abandons or 'destroys' a spouse is cursing Christ in His Passion, or striking Christ with the soldiers, or abandoning Christ to His unjust sentence, or crucifying Christ on the Cross. Christ said that whatever we do to others, we do to Him.

Whoever cruelly deserts their spouse or children is causing them to suffer as Christ suffered in His Passion, when He was heartbroken and alone. Christ said that whatever evil we do to others, we do to Him, just as whatever good we do is 'counted' as done to Him.

If I remain always at the foot of the cross, I'll remember that all the graces I now enjoy were won through Christ's lonely torment on Calvary. How can I then become proud or self-satisfied?

No-one was closer to Jesus than His Holy Mother Mary, the Blessed Virgin. He was immensely comforted in His Passion - even in the dungeon overnight - by the love which He experienced from His Mother, in spirit.

Jesus suffered in body and soul, and we need not feel guilty if we do not 'feel' fervent and joyful in our difficulties, as long as we are actively trying to do God's Will, and to remain faithful.

Christ, in His earthly life, offered the Sacrifice to end all sacrifices, though He deserved nothing but love, honour and glory. He allowed sinners to humiliate and kill Him, in order to show the depth of Divine Love. We, at Mass, can offer that once-for-all Sacrifice in reparation for our own sins.

Christ saw, from the Cross, a crowd of onlookers: the puzzled, the curious, the hostile and the sympathetic. So it is as we today suffer in union with Christ. We cannot control the attitude of others. What counts is to be obedient to the Will of God.

Our Lady shared Christ's anguish as did no-one else on earth. Their hearts beat as one, during His Passion. He experienced her sympathy and consoling thoughts in an extraordinary spiritual communion.
