"There they are staring at me, gloating; they divide my garments among them as cast lots for my clothing".  (Psalm 22: 17-18)

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You.  Because by Your Holy Cross, You have brought new life to the world.

Christ's Life

You came poor into this world and leave it without anything to call your own.  You told us not to be too concerned about our food, clothes and life and you proved this possible only in a total gift of self in love.  Your very last earthly possessions are being shared and divided.  Those who are not around are not satisfied with the suffering and pain imposed on you but continue to divide your very last possessions.
Our Lives

In this increasingly materialistic and consumeristic world, we are driven to love more and more things.  Even the land and seas and nature itself given by the Lord of Creation for all peoples is being plundered by the greedy.  We have laid waste the forests and polluted the rivers and the air itself all in the name of progress and development.  We continue to consume excessively and waste without thinking of the future generations.

My Prayer

Dear Lord Jesus, I cannot remain silent when the possessions that you have given to the whole of humanity are kept for the few and in the process hurt our sisters and brothers.  Help me keep you in view and not allow possessions to stifle and separate me from others.  Help me and the members of my family live a simple lifestyle so that we can become stewards of your gifts meant for all the people of the world.  Lord, you alone are my light.
