Before God sent you

the cross that you bear,

he looked at it with his omniscient eye

examined it with his divine logic

checked it with his infinite justice

warmed it in his loving heart

weighted it up well with his affectionate hands

lest your cross be heavier

than you can lift.

And when he calculated your courage,

he blessed your cross,

and put it on your shoulders.

You can lift it!

Carry it and rise,

marching from Golgotha

to the Resurrection!
