Knowing in that moment, that instant of time,
when He spoke those words,
that Christ would not climb down
that He would die on the cross
When Jesus groaned out that prayer
this urgent plea from my brother, my Master,
that I would watch over Mary when He was gone
that she would become my mother
Crying there with Mary, His mother,
at the foot of the cross of Jesus;
Holding her close to me, in my arms,
standing vigil before His death

This
Lenten Season, we are doing something a little different. We are doing Lenten
Dramas from: http://www.sermonsfromseattle.com/home.htm
It is called "The Voice of God". We are hearing conversations between
God and some of the characters that took part in Passion Week. It has been a
"moving experience" for all. . .
