The Cross is Crucial

 

As I focused my mind’s eye on the cross, the vertical beam shone brightly. It drew my thoughts to the foundational importance of nurturing a living, loving relationship with Jesus, heaven to earth, divine to human, anchored in the Rock of Ages.

My loving relationship with Jesus, in whom I abide, needs to be well-established in order for me to be able to extend my arms horizontally and draw in those around me.

The Cross says it all.

Lord, may my relationship with you, Jesus, deepen today, so that I rely on you for everything, and can extend your limitless love to those I meet and for whom I pray today.
