Meditation of the Five Wounds of Christ
 

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, as we come together to pray the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary of the Flame of Love, let us prepare our hearts for a profound meditation on the wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Close your eyes gently, and take a deep breath. Imagine, in the depths of your heart, the loving presence of Jesus standing before you. Visualize His sacred wounds, each one bearing witness to His great love for us.

As we approach Jesus, one step at a time, imagine yourself gently kissing each of His wounds. Begin with visualising His radiant face, bruised and crowned with thorns. As you kiss His head, recite the prayer of the meditation of the wounds of Christ and make the sign of the cross.

We offer ourselves to the Heavenly Father through all the wounds of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

We kiss the wounds of Your Sacred Head, with sorrow deep and true. 

Move to His wounded feet, where He stood in love for us. Kiss His feet with reverence and continue the prayer.

We kiss the wounds of Your Sacred Feet, with sorrow deep and true.  

Now, let your heart lead you to His pierced hands, where nails held Him on the cross. 

We kiss the wounds of your Sacred Hands with sorrow deep and true. 

Finally, imagine His wounded side, where His heart was pierced for our salvation. As you kiss His side, feel His love pouring into your soul. 

We kiss the wound of your Sacred Side with sorrow deep and true.  

In this sacred moment of reflection and devotion, allow the immense love of Jesus to permeate your heart and soul. Feel His presence with you, His wounds a testament to His boundless love for each one of us.

Take a few moments in silence, in the company of our Lord, before concluding your meditation.


Apostles' Creed:

I believe in God the Father almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried;
He descended into hell;
on the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from there He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of the saints, the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
Amen.

Our Father:
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses;
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary: x3
(For an increase in the virtues of faith, hope, and charity)
Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee;
blessed art thou among women;
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners.
Spread the effect of grace of Thy Flame of Love over all humanity,
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Glory Be:
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.

Fatima Prayer:
O my Jesus,
forgive us our sins,
save us from the fires of hell;
lead all souls to heaven,
especially those who are most in need
of thy mercy.

Invocation to the Holy Spirit:
Come Holy Spirit
Come by means of the power of the Flame of Love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
 
    Intention:

    As we embark on this sacred rosary, our hearts are uplifted in prayer for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. We remember our cherished family members and loved ones who have journeyed beyond this life, including those whose memory may have faded, and those who are in the utmost need of our supplications. May our devotion and love extend to them, offering solace and serenity in the tender embrace of our Lord.

    Thus we pray: "Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses celebrated throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home, and within my family. Amen."

    We also beseech the holy men and women in heaven to join our prayers.

    1st Sorrowful Mystery: The Agony in the Garden

    Intention:

    We come together in prayer, taking a moment to whisper the names of our cherished partners aloud.

    Dear Lord, today we lift up our beloved partners in prayer, seeking Your abundant blessings to grace their lives. With each heartfelt whisper, we invoke the divine power of Your grace to flow into their hearts and souls, illuminating their path with the radiant light of Christ.

    We humbly request spiritual, physical, and emotional well-being for our spouses, recognizing that their health and happiness are intertwined with our own. May Your boundless love fortify their faith, shield them from harm and adversity, and fill their hearts with enduring joy. May their lives serve as beacons of Your divine light to all they encounter.

    Let us also remember the ancestors of our spouses who may still be in Purgatory, yearning for the release of their souls. We beseech You, O Lord, to grant them solace and swift entry into Your eternal presence, as our prayers shorten their time of purification.

    In this sacred moment of prayer, we beseech Your grace and mercy to envelop our marriages, fortifying the bonds of love and devotion that unite us. May our homes resonate with the abiding peace of Christ, and may our families be blessed with the goodness and grace that flow from lives lived in harmony with Your divine will. Amen.

    First Mystery Reading

    First Sorrowful Mystery:
    The agony in the Garden.

    " Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and agitated. Then he said to them, “I am deeply grieved, even to death; remain here, and stay awake with me.” And going a little farther, he threw himself on the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; yet not what I want but what you want.” Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter, “So, could you not stay awake with me one hour? Stay awake and pray that you may not come into the time of trial;[a] the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Again he went away for the second time and prayed, “My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, your will be done.” Again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. So leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words. Then he came to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? See, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Get up, let us be going. See, my betrayer is at hand.” (Matthew 26:36-46)

     

    Personal Prayer

    Dear Jesus,

    As we enter into the first sorrowful mystery, we pause to contemplate Your agony in the garden. In that sacred moment, You bore the weight of our sins and the anticipation of the suffering that lay ahead. Despite the overwhelming fear and anguish that washed over You, You submitted to Your Father's divine plan with unwavering obedience.

    In our own lives, we often encounter moments of uncertainty and difficulty. We, too, carry burdens that sometimes seem unbearable. Just as You found the strength to conquer fear in the garden, we ask for Your guidance and strength to face our challenges with courage and faith.

    May Your example inspire us to choose the path of righteousness even when it is difficult. Help us to trust in Your boundless love and wisdom, knowing that You have already conquered sin and death. We confess our sins and shortcomings, which contributed to Your suffering, and we are grateful for Your immeasurable love and sacrifice.

    In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.

    2nd Sorrowful Mystery: The Scourging at the Pillar

    Intention:

    Dear Heavenly Father,

    As we gather in prayer, our hearts are filled with gratitude for the precious gift of our children. We lift them up to You, knowing that they are a divine blessing from Your loving hand. We pray for Your grace to be upon them, guiding and protecting them in every step of their journey through life.

Help us always to trust in Your goodness and to faithfully follow Your divine will. We offer this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.

     

     

    Second Mystery Reading: 

    Second Sorrowful Mystery:
    The scourging at the pillar.

    "Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus killed. The governor again said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.”  Pilate said to them, “Then what should I do with Jesus who is called the Messiah?” All of them said, “Let him be crucified!”  Then he asked, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Let him be crucified!” So when Pilate saw that he could do nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took some water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this man’s blood; see to it yourselves.” Then the people as a whole answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!” So he released Barabbas for them; and after flogging Jesus, he handed him over to be crucified." Matthew (27:23-26)

     

    Personal Prayer

    ear Jesus,

    As we reflect on the second sorrowful mystery, we are reminded of the deep pain You experienced through the betrayal of one of Your closest friends. Judas, driven by greed and selfishness, chose to betray You for a mere thirty pieces of silver. The agony of this betrayal was followed by brutal beatings, lashings, and mocking, all endured by You for the sake of our salvation.

    We acknowledge that You did not deserve such cruelty and injustice, yet You accepted it with profound grace and love. In this moment of meditation, we seek Your guidance and strength to deepen our love and appreciation for You, and to follow Your example of selfless love and sacrifice.

    Help us, dear Jesus, to rise above the pain and injustice we may encounter in our own lives, just as You rose above the cross. Inspire us to love unconditionally, even in the face of betrayal or rejection, and to forgive as You did.

    We humbly confess our own acts of betrayal, both big and small, and express our profound gratitude for Your infinite mercy and boundless love. May Your example of forgiveness and love guide us in our daily lives. Amen.

    Intention:

    Heavenly Father,

    In this moment of prayer, we gather with grateful hearts to lift up our cherished loved ones to Your divine embrace. We beseech Your abundant blessings and protective care upon each of them as they journey through the tapestry of life.

    Loving Father, hear our fervent prayers, and let Your boundless love and care envelop our beloved family members. We place our trust in Your unfailing mercy, seeking Your continued guidance and protection over our families. Amen.

    Third Mystery Reading: 

    Third Sorrowful Mystery:
    The crowning with thorns.

    "Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor’s headquarters, and they gathered the whole cohort around him. They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him, and after twisting some thorns into a crown, they put it on his head. They put a reed in his right hand and knelt before him and mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head. After mocking him, they stripped him of the robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him away to crucify him." (Mt 27:27-31).

    Personal Prayer

    Oh, Gracious King,

    As we ponder the third sorrowful mystery of Your passion, we are confronted with the painful injustices and humiliations You endured at the hands of those who failed to recognize Your true kingship. You were subjected to mockery, brutal beatings, and even disgraceful spitting, yet Your response was one of boundless love and profound humility. You refused to answer hatred with hatred, choosing instead to offer Yourself as a sacrifice for our sins, all while beckoning us to follow the path of love and forgiveness You laid out.

    Grant us the unwavering determination to stand firm in our commitment to truth and justice, even when it requires great courage and goes against the tide of popular opinion. Instill within us the courage to speak up for the oppressed, to acknowledge our own imperfections, and to place our unwavering trust in You during times of suffering. May we offer our own trials and tribulations to You as an offering, never allowing our pain to lead us down the wrong path or seek revenge. Empower us with the grace to forgive unceasingly, mirroring Your unfailing forgiveness of those who persecuted You.

    You, our Just Judge, we place our trust in Your divine defense. Amen.

    4th Sorrowful Mystery: The Carrying of the Cross

    Intention:

    Let us raise our voices in prayer for the Universal Church, beseeching the Lord to shower His abundant grace upon all its faithful members. May the radiant truth of the Gospel illuminate our paths, and may the Holy Spirit faithfully guide us as we earnestly strive to follow in the footsteps of Christ.

    Our hearts are lifted in supplication for our Pope, bishops, priests, and devoted religious, that they may shine as exemplary models of unwavering faith and dedicated servants of the faithful, leading us steadfastly on the righteous journey. May the laity, too, be empowered to boldly proclaim Christ's message and sow His love through the tapestry of their everyday lives.

    Amen.

    Fourth Sorrowful Mystery Reading: 

    Fourth Sorrowful Mystery:
    The carrying of the cross.

    "And they compelled a passer-by, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means the place of a skull)" (Mk 15:21-22).

    Personal Prayer

    Dear Jesus,

    As we reflect on the fourth sorrowful mystery of the Rosary, we are humbled by the immense pain and suffering You endured for our sake. Your body, already weakened and bruised from the beatings, bore the weight of the cross upon Your shoulders. You stumbled and fell under its immense burden on a long, steep, and rocky road. Yet, driven by Your boundless love for us, You did not falter in Your determination.

    Even as the soldiers mocked and spat on You, and the crowd jeered and hurled insults, You pressed on. We are deeply sorry for the agony You endured, Lord Jesus. We cannot fathom the physical and emotional pain You must have felt as You carried the cross toward Your crucifixion. We thank You for willingly bearing this heavy load, for revealing the depth of Your love and sacrifice.

    As we meditate on this mystery, we pray for the strength to bear our own crosses in life, to persevere in the face of adversity, and to trust in Your love and guidance. May we strive to emulate Your example, showing kindness and compassion to those who mistreat us, and remaining steadfast in our faith even in the darkest moments.

    Dear Mother Mary, we can only imagine the pain and sorrow You felt as You watched Your beloved Son carry the cross. We seek Your intercession, asking for the strength and courage to bear our own crosses, just as You did when You stood by Your Son's side. May we follow in Your footsteps, offering comfort and support to those who suffer, and bearing witness to the love and mercy of Your Son, our Savior. Amen.

    Intention:

    Heavenly Father, we come before you seeking your grace to help us persevere in our struggles and overcome our weaknesses.

    Mystery Reading: 

    Fifth Sorrowful Mystery:
    The crucifixion.

    "And when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on the right and one on the left. And Jesus said, 'Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do' ...
    It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour, while the sun's light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, 'Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!' And having said this he breathed his last" (Lk 23:33-46). 

    Personal Prayer

    Dear Jesus, as we contemplate the fifth sorrowful mystery of the crucifixion, we are struck by the depth of Your love and compassion for us. You endured unimaginable pain and suffering on the cross, yet You chose to extend forgiveness to those who crucified You, as well as to all who would come to You seeking mercy. Your act of selflessness and love is a powerful example for us to follow.

    We acknowledge that we often struggle with forgiveness in our own lives. It can be difficult to let go of the hurt and pain that others have caused us, and to extend grace and mercy in the face of wrongdoing. Yet, You have shown us that true strength lies in forgiveness, and that it is only through extending this gift to others that we can truly experience the freedom and peace that comes with it.

    We ask for Your help in learning to forgive as You did. Help us to see others through Your eyes, with compassion and understanding. Teach us to let go of anger and bitterness, and to instead embrace the healing power of forgiveness. We also ask for Your mercy and forgiveness for the times when we have fallen short in this area, and have failed to extend grace and compassion to others.

    As we meditate on the fifth sorrowful mystery, we are also reminded of the gift of Your mother Mary, whom You entrusted to us from the cross. We are grateful for her guidance and comfort, and we pray that she may intercede for us as we seek to live out Your teachings of love and forgiveness.

    We humbly ask for Your mercy and remembrance in Your kingdom, and we offer ourselves to You as living examples of Your love and compassion. May we always be reminded of the tremendous sacrifice You made for us, and may we be inspired to live our lives in service to You and to others. Amen.

You endured immense suffering and willingly embraced the cross for the sake of our salvation, offering us a path to eternal life. We thank You for Your boundless mercy and compassion, which flow from Your heart like a flame of love, never ceasing to warm and heal us.

    May our souls be in harmony.
    May our thoughts be as one.
    May our ears listen to the silence together.
    May our glances profoundly penetrate each other.
    May our lips pray together to gain mercy from the Eternal Father. Amen

    Prayer for the propagation of the Flame of Love

    Blessed Virgin Mary, our cherished heavenly Mother,
    you love God and us, your children, so much
    that you offer us to your Divine Son Jesus on the Cross,
    to forgive us by our Heavenly Father and to obtain our salvation,
    so that all those who believe in Him do not perish but obtain eternal life.
    With a filial confidence, we pray to you, Virgin Mary,
    that the Flame of Love of your Immaculate Heart,
    kindled by the Holy Spirit, you ignite in our languid hearts
    the fire of a perfect love for God and all humanity,
    so that together with you, with one heart,
    we love God and our neighbour.
    Help us to transmit this holy Flame to all people of good will,
    so that the Flame of Love extinguishes hatred everywhere on earth
    and that Jesus, the Prince of Peace,
    be the King and centre of all hearts
    in the Sacrament of His Love
    on the throne of our altars.
    Amen

    My Adorable Jesus, we ask you to take us in spirit
    before your Eucharistic Presence throughout the world.
    Take us and place us where we belong in the Divine Fire.
    Share with us your Immaculate Conception.


    Prayer to St. Joseph

    To you, O blessed Joseph, do we come in our tribulation,
    and having implored the help of your most holy spouse,
    we confidently invoke your patronage also.
    Through that charity which bound you to the Immaculate Virgin
    Mother of God and through the paternal love
    with which you embraced the Child Jesus,
    we humbly beg you graciously to regard the inheritance
    which Jesus Christ has purchased by his Blood,
    and with your power and strength to aid us in our necessities.

    O most watchful Guardian of the Holy Family,
    defend the children of God; O most loving father,
    ward off from us every contagion of error and corrupting influence;
    O our most mighty protector, be kind to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the power of darkness;
    As you once rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril,
    so now protect God's Holy Church from the snares of the enemy
    and from all adversity; shield, too, each one of us by your constant protection,
    so that, supported by your example and your aid,
    we may be able to live piously, to die in holiness,
    and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven.
    Amen.


    St. Joseph, Guardian of the Holy Family Pray for us.
    St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church Pray for us.
    St. Joseph, Terror of demons Pray for us.

    Memorare

    Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
    that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
    implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided.
    Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my mother;
    to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
    O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions,
    but in your mercy hear and answer me.
    Amen.


    Prayers for the Pope
    Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

    Prayer for Protection

    St Michael the Archangel defend us in battle.
    Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him we humbly pray and do thou,
    oh Prince of the heavenly Host
    by the power of God thrust into hell Satan
    and all the evil spirits that wander in the world
    seeking the ruin of souls.
    Amen.
