Kituo 10: Yesu anaibiwa nguo zake

 

 

Kufichua …

 

Naweza kuhesabu mifupa yangu yote. Wananitazama na kufurahi; wanagawana nguo zangu kati yao; kwa mavazi yangu walipiga kura.” (Zaburi 22:18-19)

Kufika mahali pa kunyongwa, Yesu anavua nguo zake. Anafichuliwa, wazi kwa macho ya wengi, wazi kwao bila ulinzi. Yesu anavumilia haya: Yuko kwenye kiwango sawa na aliyenajisiwa, waliofedheheshwa, wazi wa kila aina. Kunyimwa mali na utu wake wote, sasa anasimama chini kabisa katika jamii ya wanadamu.

Tena na tena, hutokea watu kufichuana – mara nyingi bila hata kutambua. Iwe kwa njia ya ukatili, kutokuwa na aibu, ukosefu wa heshima, wakati mwingine ujinga, – au labda kwa makusudi, kumdhuru mwingine, kudharau, kudhalilisha. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 8: Yesu anakutana na wanawake wanaolia

 

 

Uelewa na Churuma

"Umati mkubwa wa watu ulimfuata Yesu, wakiwemo wanawake wengi waliomlilia na kumlilia. Yesu akawageukia na kusema, “Binti za Yerusalemu, msinililie; bali jililieni nafsi zenu na watoto wenu. (Luka 23:27-28)

Baadhi ya wanawake wanaoshuhudia anguko la Yesu wanaguswa moyo sana na mateso ya wengine, hata wakati nyingine inaonekana kama a “jinai”. Hawamhoji, hawaulizi hatia au kutokuwa na hatia, wanaona tu waliovunjika, kuteswa, mtu aliyetendewa vibaya kupita kiasi. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 9: Yesu huanguka chini ya msalaba kwa mara ya tatu

 

 

Kulala chini …

“Kwa adui zangu wote mimi ni kitu cha kudharauliwa, na hasa kwa majirani zangu, hofu kwa marafiki zangu. Wanaponiona hadharani, wanakimbia haraka." (Zaburi 31:12)

Yesu analala chini bila kutikisika. Bila ulinzi, nimechoka, mwisho wa nguvu zake za kibinadamu. Analala pale kama mtu aliyeachwa, mtu anayeteswa, kunyonywa na kutumika. Ni vigumu kubeba picha hii – na bado tunaitarajia kutoka kwa wenzetu wengi. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 4: Yesu anakutana na mama yake

 

 

Kuguswa …

Maneno ambayo mzee Simeoni alimwambia Mariamu kwenye hekalu yanaanza kutimia: “Tazama, mtoto huyu amekusudiwa kuanguka na kuinuka kwa wengi katika Israeli, na kuwa ishara ambayo itapingwa na wewe mwenyewe upanga utaingia ili mawazo ya mioyo mingi yafunuliwe.” (comp. Luke 2:34-35)

Mariamu, mama wa Yesu, inasukumwa na huruma. Yeye haondoki katika dhiki hii bali anamwonyesha Mwanawe kwamba anasimama karibu naye katika kila jambo na kwamba yuko pamoja naye kwa upendo wake.. Yeye haondoki upande wake, haina kuepuka maumivu inayoonekana, kumsindikiza na kubaki kuwepo. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 5: Simoni anamsaidia Yesu kubeba msalaba

 

 

 

Kwenda Pamoja Na

"Walimsonga katika huduma mpita njia, Simon, mtu wa Kirene, ambaye alikuwa akija kutoka nchini, baba wa Aleksanda na Rufo, kuubeba msalaba wake.” (Weka alama 15:21)

Njia ya Yesu inavuka na njia ya mkulima aliyeshangaa Simoni. Labda amechoka kutoka kazini na akirudi nyumbani. Sasa atabeba boriti ya utekelezaji wa a “jinai”. Simon hajui mtu huyu aliyehukumiwa ni nani na jinsi anavyojikuta ghafla na asiye na uzoefu katika hali hii. Inakabiliwa na vurugu zinazozunguka, bila swali anajitwika boriti zito na kumsindikiza Yesu katika safari yake ya mwisho. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 6: Veronica akimkabidhi Yesu leso

 

 

 

Kupunguza Need na Ssadaka …

"Heri wenye rehema, kwa maana watahurumiwa. Heri wenye moyo safi, kwa maana watamwona Mungu." (Mt 5:7-8)

Umati unafuata kwa shauku tamasha hilo la kuvutia kwa dhihaka, vurugu, ukatili na udadisi. Veronica, mwanamke njiani, ana ujasiri wa kutoka nje ya umati. Anasafisha na kuburudisha uso unaoteseka wa Yesu. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 7: Jesus falls down under the cross for the second wakati

 

 

 

Collapsing

But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people. All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads. (Zaburi 22,7-8)

The cruel brutality, the injustice, the ever more oppressive burden, the physical and probably also mental pain, make Jesus collapse a second time. How close Jesus is to us in his human fragility and vulnerability! The people around him stand there, looking, shouting, mocking, scolding. Some are affected, others are not, they appear to be curious, helpless, or happy not to be affected themselves. Endelea kusoma

Kituo 3: Jesus falls down under the cross for the first time

 

 

Falling Down

But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee, … they maliciously mocked; they gnashed their teeth at me.“ (Zaburi 35,15-16)


People suffer some defeats in their lives. Instead of getting help from others, they get only the feeling of being atotal loser”. – Who of us has notfallenin life or seen someone elsefall”? – Is it right then to mock the one lying on the ground even further instead of reaching out to help him? – Perhaps we should understand these traps of Jesus as a sign of his solidarity with us. – “… he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God something to be grasped. Rather, he emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness; and found to be human in appearance, ” (comp. Phill 2:6-7)

Kituo 2: Jesus takes the cross on his shoulders

 

 

Bearing and Enduring

Jesus is forced to carry the crossbeam on which he is to be crucified. Without resisting, he carries it like the other two accused. Doesn’t this remind us of his earlier enigmatic message: “”Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me “? (comp. Matt 16:24)

Taking life as it is. – every human dreams of a bright future, of a fulfilled life. But the reality is different for most people. The words from above sound hard, they admonish us and do not invite us to take the easy way. Let us remember the pictures from the newspapers and news. – Sisters and brothers who are persecuted, humiliated, killed because of their race, their faith, their skin colour. – People who even today are traded like cattle, exploited and abused as modern slaves. – Children who have their lives taken away before it has even begun. – People who have to live in and with conflicts for which they themselves are not to blame.

Kituo 1: Jesus becomes sentenced to death

 

 

Condemning

Jesus becomes innocently sentenced. Pilate asks him, “What have you done?” Jesus answers: “I came into the world to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice. (comp. Yohn 18:35-37)

How quick we are today with prejudices – especially against people who do not fit into our way of doing things and our lovely picture of how life should be. How often do we hear about slander, today also calledmobbing”, – or are perhaps even affected by it ourselvesas victims? – as confidants? – as perpetrators? Endelea kusoma
