The five wounds of Jesus

This act is an awareness of salvation, a self-offering to the Trinity. The five holy wounds of Christ belong to the Triune One God, and also I can join with him the day ahead of me, my sufferings, my life, This is a encounter of a special quality between the divine and the human. After rising, before going to bed, at the beginning of the Rosary, let us make the sign of the cross five times, listening slowly. If we can think of this as a kind of meditative, "bodily prayer", it becomes natural. Our union with Jesus on the cross is a way of redemption.
