Note: I just "converted" to Windows 10 and am having a devil of a time with it. Never should have done it. As a result...our slice will be very thin today.
As we reflect on the cross today, we see two aspects: a sign that was once shameful and disgraceful, that has become now a sign of triumph and hope, and the target of hate and persecution. Looks like the cross will always be the cross, associated with pain and suffering, but also of victory and resurrection. It is painful even to watch the destruction of crosses in Syria by ISIS, yet we know that someday they will find their place of honor on the churches from which they have been removed. Even in our own lives, our aches and pains though seemingly endless, will be healed. The pattern we are to follow is the model that Jesus left us, so eloquently described in Philippians 2:6-11. Let's make it a point to find time today to sit with it and let it sink in.
