Veronica Wipes Jesus' Face
(Early Church tradition)
“whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me…anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to Christ will certainly not lose his reward.”
Mark 9:37 & 41
Jesus, as You struggle in agony,
one woman,
breaking away from fear
and the angry crowds,
kindly washed
Your bleeding face with her
thin veil.
Something so simple.
A towel, a cup of cold water, a
loving word, a touch.
Lord,
help me value such small
things, so great when given
in Your name.
