May Our Lady will give us a deeper understanding of Patience through the five Mysteries of Sorrows
”As they led Jesus away they took hold of a certain Simon.” Luke 23:26
It had been a long, slow journey from his home in the country to Jerusalem, and Simon was tired at the end of it. Occupied with his own idle thoughts, he hardly noticed the stream of soldiers and citizens coming out through the city gate. But the soldiers noticed him. A moment later the astonished Simon found himself helping Jesus Christ carry His cross. Simon didn’t like it at all, but he did as he was told; and it was not long before God enlightened his soul.
Simon of Cyrene was the first to discover that the yoke of Christ is sweet, and His burden light. “Come to me when you are weary.”
