S7E15: The Confession of the Crucifixion

Today's Daily Decade, on the Feast of St. Clare of Assisi, offers prayers for Natalie, Ryan, and their unborn baby Jude, for safe delivery and continued growth in health and devotion as a family. Today is a bit unusual, since it is a Friday but we nevertheless pray in English and beg the intercession of St. Gerard - this intention was originally supposed to be offered this past Monday, the Feast of the Four Crowned Martyrs. Today's reflection is on the Crucifixion and the way Christ reveals his triune identity as Son of David, Son of Man, and Son of God even as He dies for us on the Cross, as a last effort to win the hearts of the stubborn people to whom He was sent. Instead, He wins the thief and centurion - Ss. Dismas and Longinus.
