STATION 10 - Jesus is stripped of His Garments
Adoration
We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee, because by Thy holy cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.
Meditation
When Our Savior had arrived on Calvary, He was cruelly despoiled of His garments. How painful this must have been because they adhered to His wounded and torn body, and with them parts of His bloody skin were removed! All the wounds of Jesus were renewed. Jesus was despoiled of His garments that He might die possessed of nothing; how happy will I also die after laying aside my former self with all evil desires and sinful inclinations!
Prayer
Induce me, O Jesus, to lay aside my former self and to be renewed according to Thy will and desire. I will not spare myself, however painful this should be for me: despoiled of things temporal, of my own will, I desire to die, in order to live for Thee forever.
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And
lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, for ever and ever. AMEN
/Hail Mary/ Glory be to the Father, and to
the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be
for ever. AMEN Lord Jesus, crucified, have
mercy on us! Stabat Mater Make me feel as thou hast felt;
Make my soul to glow and melt
With the love of Christ, my Lord.
