Stations of the Cross
Sixth Station
Veronica wipes the face of Jesus.
Poem
A look of Compassion, an imprint of Love, a grace given
His life was poured out in service, God and fully human
Jesus’ broken body returns to the vulnerability of his birth
From the surging crowd a brave defiant women bolted forth
Her eyes met Christ who was wrapped in a shroud of weakness
Her towel pressed his pain etched face with a shroud of goodness!
Meditation
The temptation is to turn the face away from witnessing suffering or pain, to run from poverty or need, to leave it to another to do something to make a difference. We meet Veronica at this Sixth Station, and she does not run, does not look way, or hide her head. She acts out of compassion. Now compassion is a motive at the heart of every person, a virtue that sometimes lies dormant within. To be compassionate involves risk, the possibility of being hurt ourselves. We are to be brave if we are to walk into the firing line suffering brings. Jesus’ own words in Luke’s gospel speak to us “Be compassionate as your heavenly Father is compassionate!” Veronica acts on these words and is blest to receive the imprint of Jesus’ face upon her towel.
