4th Station: Jesus Meets His Mother
“Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother, His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing beside her, He said to His mother, ‘Woman, behold, your son.’ Then He said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.” — John 19:25–27
Reflection:
As Jesus carried the cross, He met His mother, Mary. Their eyes met, and in that moment, love and sorrow spoke louder than words.Mary’s heart ached seeing her Son suffer, yet her faith and trust in God never wavered. Jesus, even in His agony, looked upon her with love and compassion, offering her comfort.
This encounter reminds us of the deep bond between Jesus and Mary—and the unwavering love and support mothers give, even in life’s hardest moments.
How can I show love and gratitude to my mother today?
How can I imitate Mary’s faith and trust in God?
Even in suffering, love and compassion strengthen us and those around us. We are called to support and comfort one another through life’s trials.
Prayer:
Lord, help us to love with the same compassion and trust as Mary. May we find comfort in each other and in Your presence. Amen.
Take a Moment:
Jesus met His mother with love in the midst of suffering.
How can you bring love and compassion to someone who is hurting today?
