About LENT: 40 Reflections and Mystical Revelations on the Passion
Follow Christ on his journey to Calvary with 40 devotional reflections, meditations, prayers, and excerpts from the mystical visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich and Venerable Maria of Agreda. Watch with Jesus as He prays in the Garden of Gethsemane. Grieve beside Him as He stands trial. Climb with Him on the way to Golgotha. And mourn with His Blessed Mother at the foot of the Cross. Contemplate the roles of Mary, Peter, Judas, Herod, Pilate, Simon the Cyrene, and Dismas the Good Thief . . . and, of course, Satan, whose hope of victory over Jesus is dashed in the end.

Both Anne Catherine and Maria sharply condemned the wickedness of the historical figures who took part in the torture and murder of Jesus. The sacrifice of the Lamb of God, they knew, was a sacrifice for all time (Hebrews 9:26-28). His Blood, like His steadfast love and His faithfulness, extends to all generations, because all generations are in desperate need of its power (Psalm 100:5; Romans 5:18-19). Reflection on Our Lord's passion blossoms into contrite confession, which in turn bears fruit-not of self-hatred, but of divine pardon, and a renewed resolve to live as Jesus lived.
He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that made us whole, and with His stripes we are healed. - Isaiah 53:3-5

Day 39: "Follow Me!"
Jesus did not suffer unspeakable torments so that we could live comfortably. He did not die a horrible death so that we could live a life wasted in petty pursuits. No. Jesus, "suffered all this so He could bring us into the eternal glory of God the Father as true sons and daughters" (Hebrews 2:10). The destiny He intends for us is nothing less than to "be like Him" when at last we "see Him as He is. Grace costs us everything, but in the end it makes us whole. Maria's vision warns us against notions of cheap grace and calls us to embrace the Cross.
Then Jesus told His disciples, "If any man would come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it." - Matthew 16:24-25

Day 38: Blood and Water
Our Lord's suffering had at last come to an end. But the graces flowing from His passion had only just begun to flood the world. Since ancient times, the Church fathers have seen in this "blood and water" the font of two life-giving sacraments, Baptism and the Eucharist. In Anne Catherine's vision, a Roman officer comes to symbolize the power of the sacraments in the Church to come. Grace prompts him to approach the Body of Christ; grace heals and enlightens him through the Blood and Water and these gifts he has received he will share them with the world.
One of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water. ... For these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled ... "They shall look on Him whom they have pierced." - John 19:34-37
