As we continue to reflect on Jesus’ journey to Calvary, may God open our hearts to do more acts of kindness. Blood from the crown of thorns and sweat from the hard work of carrying the cross, mix in Jesus’ face. This is not an easy way to show love. The blood and seat drip from him and sting his eyes. From out of the crowd, steps a woman believed to be named Veronica, who lovingly wipes the face of Jesus. It is a simple but important act of love and compassion for the giver of all love and compassion.
Have you ever ignored someone who was in need, or when have you stopped to help someone in need? Too many times we see people who are in need of help and turn the other way. This is true especially if it’s someone we do not know; but Jesus reminds us in Matthew chapter 25 and verse forty, that, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
