This e-book is one of the precious gems left by Monsignor João Clá Dias in his invaluable legacy. These meditations are especially fitting for the season of Lent, when we remember the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ through the Via Sacra, but they are also timely for a reflection that transcends time and allows us to become aware of the state of our own faith.

“What should I offer to Jesus at this moment when I see Him kissing the Cross? O my Jesus! Seeing You kneel to embrace the instrument of Your torment, I throw myself at Your feet, contrite and humbled. Consume all my faults in Your infinite mercy and transform them into another crown of Your glory.”
