Christ’s Cross
by Christine on March 29, 2009
A Lenten reflection that makes me thankful for Christ’s cross:
But we have our cross to bear, and our whole life is to be a bearing of it. It is not Christ’s cross that we are to carry; that is too heavy for us, and besides, it has been done once and for all. But our cross remains, and much of a Christian life consists in a true, honest, decided bearing of it. Not indeed to be nailed to it, but to take it up and carry it— this is our calling. A cross is presented to each of us when we assume the name of Christ. Horatius Bonar, God’s Way of Holiness, p. 66
