Blue Army First Station
Blue Army First Station
Even the stillness here feels like prayer. Standing at this first station, we reflect on how truth is often dismissed and how quickly a crowd can turn. Jesus stands condemned—innocent, yet radiant with love.
The path He walks asks something of us. It begins with a choice to stand for truth, even when it costs something.
First Station
Jesus is Condemned to DeathR. Because by Thy holy cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.
Lord Jesus, You stood silently before Pilate while the world turned against You. Forgive me for the times I’ve failed to stand for what is right in the quiet decisions of my daily life.
Give me the courage to speak truth. Let this journey begin in the freedom that comes from walking beside You, step by step.
Voices of the Cross
A Deeper Journey into the Souls Present at the Blue Army First Station
The Lamb Before the Lion
"I stand condemned, not because truth has failed, but because my love has chosen to endure. I do not defend myself. I allow this injustice to pass through me, knowing that my silence will eventually become your redemption."
The Cost of Compromise
"I know the truth standing before me, yet I fear the cost of defending it. I wash my hands to stay safe, but my heart remains stained by the pressure of the crowd. I chose my reputation over my conscience."
The Mother’s Silence
"I do not speak, but my heart speaks endlessly. I watch my Son condemned and I offer no resistance — only a love that consents to the Father’s will, even as the sword begins to pierce my soul."
My Heart Ponders
"In this first station, I see how easily I can become part of the crowd or a hesitant Pilate. I am reminded that silence or distance can still wound. Lord, help me to stand with You when the world condemns the truth, and give me the grace to accept my own crosses with Your silent strength."
