Day Two
Jesus is our Friend
Jesus is your friend - The Friend - with a heart of flesh, like yours, with eyes, which look so lovingly, which wept for Lazarus. And as much as he loves Lazarus, he loves you. The Way, no. 422
You seek the company of friends who, with their conversation and affection, with their friendship, make the exile of this world more bearable for you, although friends sometimes let one down. I don't think it's wrong to do that. But... how is it that you don't frequent daily with greater intensity the company, the conversation of the Great Friend, who never lets one down? The Way, no. 88
With you, Jesus, what joy in suffering, what light in darkness! The Way, no. 229
Intention
Jesus, give me the grace to feel the tenderness, consolation, and joy of your friendship, recalling your words, "I have called you friends." May your friendship help me accept my sufferings and offer them to God, thinking of how lovingly you endured your Passion for me.
