The crowds gathered on that Great and Holy Friday, as our Lord Who was nailed to the Cross. Those who were present saw how He was mocked and beaten. They saw and heard the nails being hammered through His Holy Body onto the wood of the Cross.
The crowd felt the earthquake that took place after He breathed His last. The centurion (St. Cornelius) not only witnessed this but he was the one who said “truly this Man was the Son of God” (St. Cornelius - who is considered by some as the first Gentile to convert to the Faith)
We too, should gaze upon the Cross and have The Holy Spirit guide not only our physical eyes, but the eyes of our soul to look at how much love our Lord has for His Creation.
Reflection:
Do I take the opportunity, each and every day, to bring the Love of God to others?
Do I realize that this is part of my daily ministry?
