Stations of the Cross - St John's Church, Watford

Jesus speaks to the women of Jerusalem.

We adore You, Lord Christ, and we bless You
Because by Your holy cross You have redeemed the world.

A large number of people followed Him, including women who mourned and wailed for Him. Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me; weep for yourselves and for your children”.

Luke 23:27-28.

As He approached Jerusalem and saw the city, He wept over it and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace – but now it is hidden from your eyes. The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognise the time of God’s coming to you.”

Luke 19:41-44.

Lord have mercy.
Christ have mercy.
Lord have mercy.
