STATIONS
OF THE CROSS
Seventh Station: JESUS' SECOND FALL
We Adore You, O Christ, And We Praise You.
Because By Your Holy Cross You Have Redeemed The World.
This scene reveals three figures on the stage with a large portion
of the planet Earth exposed. Christ has fallen and He has reached
for strength through the Word, His hand directly on the Scriptures.
He is literally hanging onto the Word believing and trusting that
no matter what happens to Him, His Abba hears him and is with
him as he walks to Golgatha. All who see me scoff at me;
they mock me with parted lips, they wag their heads: he relied
on the Lord; let him deliver him, let him rescue him if he loves
him . You have been my guide since I was first formed, my security
at my mother's breast. To you I was committed at birth, from my
mother's womb you are my God. Be not far from me, for I am in
distress; be near, for I have no one to help me (Ps. 2-8).
