Thursday of the Fifth Week of Lent

Jesus suffered, was crucified, and died on a cross for you.
Your cross will never be as heavy as the cross of My Son.
Now take up your cross and humbly follow Christ.
Hold it firmly and worry neither about its weight
nor how far you must carry it.
I will sustain you and give you strength to bear the weight.

Never will I abandon you My dear child.
Stay close to My heart

and you will always have joy within you
even when you suffer, for I am with you.
Wondrous is My love for you.
