Second Station: Jesus, betrayed by Judas, is arrested
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you. Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
Then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs, who had come from the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders. His betrayer had arranged a signal with them, saying, “The man I shall kiss is the one; arrest him and lead him away securely.” He came and immediately went over to him and said, “Rabbi.” And he kissed him. At this they laid hands on him and arrested him. (Mark 14: 43-46)
Observe a few minutes of silent reflection.
Lord, grant us the courage of our convictions that our lives may faithfully reflect the good news you bring. Lord Jesus, help us walk in your steps.
Sing: When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died My richest gain I count but loss And pour contempt on all my pride.
