Introduction
From "Where You are" to "Where I want you to Be"
From "Where You are" to "Where I want you to Be"
Reflection
My sons and daughters thank you for being here to share this time with me. This time you will walk with me, talk with me on the way to Calvary; the path of redemption. It was not easy. I met many people on my way. They insulted me, mocked me, spit at my face, humiliated me; did everything that a person can do to another living person. Yes I was shocked how people can do these things to me. Although these people have done everything they could do to me they were unable to “wound” my heart or “divide” my heart. My heart was always with all of you.
Look at your hearts today. Most of you have “Wounded Hearts” or “Divided Hearts”. I see all of you smile with each other but deep down in your heart don’t you cry? It may be because of something happened to you, any thought in your mind or any other reason. That is why you are, where you are just now. It is a terrible physical and spiritual condition that you should seek medication. Unfortunately there are no surgery, no medication for this heart sickness. Look at me. When you see me in this passion most probably you might feel I was miserable. No. Inside of me it was joy and happiness. But you couldn’t see it because it is internal. That is why I called you today; to move you from “Where you are” to “Where I want you to be”.
This time, you spend here should not be to have compassion for the incident happened two thousand years ago. When I was slowly moving on the WAY OF THE CROSS I was changing some people; Malchas, Pilot, My Mother, Veronica are a few of them. That is why you are talking about them today. You will meet them today in a special way. Reflect how they were changed. They were against what people were trying to impose on me but they were unable to stop them; yet they made their voice against it. I want you to change too. Do not try to be one of them. Be yourself. And Change yourself. Then the world around you will change.
Today I see the way of the cross in your heart. When you are unable to love yourself the way you are, when you struggle to love your family the way they are, are you not at Gethsemane? When you are unable to wipe the face of your neighbor when he was abandoned, are you not refusing to be Veronica? Remember I was not a hero at Gethsemane. I was about to reject. But when I consulted my father and asked His Will, He strengthened me. He revealed to me “where I was” and “where He wants me to be”. It was a continuous struggle. That was the secret.
Now let us walk. I will strengthen you and give you courage. Let this be a life changing event.
