Read

When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,”

(John 19:26)

Pray

Dear God,

You showed us the depth of love and compassion through the words of Jesus on the cross when he said to his mother, “Woman, here is Your son,” and to the disciple, “Here is Your mother.” Your selfless and caring nature is evident in these powerful words. Help me to emulate this spirit of love and care, not just for my family but for my neighbors and fellow humans. Grant me the grace to show kindness and concern for others, just as Jesus did in his final moments.

Please give me the strength and wisdom to be a source of support and comfort for those in need, and to be attentive to the needs of others. May I extend the same love and care to those around me, reflecting Your unconditional love to the world. Help me to be a blessing in the lives of those who need it most.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
