Father, forgive them.
Jesus; Luke 23:34
 


No one, however weak,
is denied a share in the victory of the cross.
No one is beyond the help of the prayer of Christ.
His prayer brought benefit to the multitude that raged against him.
How much more does it bring to those who turn to him in repentance.
