Those who suffer agonies, watching, caring, helpless to help those who are suffering without relent, may seem to stand at the foot of the cross lovingly caring but impotent to act but their hearts too are on the cross with Christ.
Those who are in intense untreatable suffering in my view are all on the cross with Christ. They enter into His pain as He enters into theirs with silent compassion and a heart full of love and mercy.
We are all touched by Christ on the Cross. In our suffering we are all immersed in the Cross. Everyone was touched by love from that moment. For all time. There is no separation between us and God.
