6. Jesus crowned with thorns
A Reading
And they clothed him in a purple cloak; and after twisting some thorns into a crown, they put it on him. And they began saluting him, ‘Hail, King of the Jews!’ They struck his head with a reed, spat upon him, and knelt down in homage to him.
(Mark 15.17-19)
A Prayer
Lord Jesus, you faced the most horrific death the world has ever witnessed:
be with those who cry out in physical agony and emotional distress.
Bring healing to those we know who are in pain today.
You endured unbearable abuse:
be with those who face abuse in our world today.
Amen.
