As Jesus stumbled along the hot dusty rocky road to Calvary, he fell under the weight but he was forced to go on. He was crushed under the weight of the wood, and is bruised and beaten down by soldiers. He falls, for even though he is fully God, he is filled with the weaknesses of being fully human. This is the wonder of our God, who became flesh in Jesus. Thank you, Lord!

Many times we are tempted to give up, when the struggle seems too much to bear; so too Jesus felt the pressure, he felt weakness as we sometimes do, but he struggled on. Lord, teach us to bear the crosses we are made to carry with humility.
