Third Station: Jesus Falls the First Time
Father, thanks for loving us when we’re down, even more than our mothers and fathers did when they picked us up and kissed us after we had fallen. Help us not to expect ourselves to be perfect. Help us live with our faults while we try to do better and love others when they’re down so they can do better.

What a wonderful way to realize the awesome power of God’s love….

(yikes) so I got on and it didn’t say “one person at a time please” LOL according to that I have gained 4.6 lbs… BUT I had eaten breakfast… don’t you think a taco and a coke zero can weigh, hummmmm about 6 lbs? Since I can’t go this week either I have a week to get that off and be proud to say I have stayed the same… can I do it, yes I can! He he, I have been walking the last couple of nights, Johnny, Vinnie, Cathy and
