b'I sense myself struck dumb with the overwhelming horror, walking without strength\\u2014drawn by the crowd\\u2014drawn to be with you, my Lord, no matter where this ends\\u2026I had hoped\\u2026I had thought\\u2026But my dirty legs carry me amidst this angry and rollicking crowd\\u2014their shouts and laughter a muddy din to my ears. Tears form but do not flow. My throat is dry and stuck\\u2014I cannot swallow. My heart, too exhausted to hurt, is held in a tense, quiet ache. It is dying with you, my Lord.All my hope\\u2026All my love\\u2026Dying with you.As they prod you on\\u2026you\\u2018re so weak.You fall again and again.I can\\u2019t move to help\\u2014I\\u2019m just part of the current.It seems surreal.A man, a man picks up your cross.He carries it for you.You walk on\\u2026blood flowing down your legs\\u2026I walk in the path of your bloody footsteps.Where are you taking us?We followed you.We follow you still. None of us say a word, our eyes fixed on you. We can\\u2019t look away. Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Jesus.Let it not be.Yet somewhere inside me I know it must be.This is where it all led\\u2026from the very beginning\\u2026somehow. \\u2022 Jeri Howe\\n\\u2022 Even though Jesus had foretold what was going to happen to Him, His followers didn\\u2019t understand His prediction. How might it give you comfort to know that Jesus walked that long, painful, sorrowful walk to the cross because of His great love for you?\\nAnd he said, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d Luke 9:22 (NIV)\\n\\xa0\\nRead Verses:\\nExod.12.21-Exod.12.22|Exod.24.6-Exod.24.8|Lev.14.4-Lev.14.6|John.19.28-John.19.30|Ps.51.7'
