"In martyrdom as in every death there is a not-knowing, a necessary mediation of the element of not-knowing in order that the mystery of God be maintained."
(Jon So bering,S.J.)

He has told you, O mortal
  what is good;
and what does the Lord
  require of you
but to do justice,
  and to walk humbly
with your God?
(Micah 6:8)

Reflections

A world
Collaged with tissues and paint
Pieced together on purpose.
Suffering unglues it.

Listen to the call
Approach the cross,
"Not-knowing ".
Your embrace illuminates justice.

Questions for Intention: (How to Pray with Art)

Can you still go with Jesus even though you may not know where he is leading you? Or see the results of your efforts in ministry, family, work, etc.?

Notice what compassion you feel for Jesus as he approaches the cross.

What events or relationships have indicated your unique participation in God's plan for salvation?

What is my obligation, my responsibility to proclaim justice and to welcome others into fellowship with God and one another?
