Feeling a little blue today. Whenever this happens, I think to myself, someone must be suffering and needs prayers. Or someone’s suffering is overflowing into my soul, so that I can bear their cross with them, like Simon of Cyrene who helped Jesus carry His cross.

Please join me in prayer for suffering souls.
 
What an unselfish way to handle the blues! Praying a decade of the Rosary for you 😉
 
Beautiful. I will finish the Divine Mercy Chaplet I started last night for you. (fell asleep, not uncommon at my age!).

He didn’t help Jesus to carry the cross. He was taken out of the crowd and forced to carry the cross. To me helping is a voluntary action. Simon of Cyrene did not volunteer to help.

Then you must feel as Veronica did when she wiped the face of Jesus.God Bless.
 
Thank you, Lady Love. I too have been feeling blue today. Will pray a rosary for others who feel that way.
 
Wow, Thank you all so much. Now, that you mention it my blues did go away shortly after posting this. You are all a blessing to me.

Whether he was forced or volunteered, it helped Jesus just the same. Sometimes, I’m not a willing participant in my crosses or when bearing someone else’s burden, hopefully, I will have a change of heart to be more willing.
