Via Crucis (6)

Sweet mercy and a soft cloth to wipe the sting of sweat, blood and thorns. Seemingly insignificant actions form the minute shoots of renewal reaching up through the cracks of human desolation.

Station 6: Veronica Wipes Jesus’ Face

Kindness in the heart of atrocity. Tenderness in the midst of savagery. Sweet mercy and a soft cloth to wipe the sting of sweat, blood and thorns. Seemingly insignificant actions form the minute shoots of renewal reaching up through the cracks of human desolation.
