The Wonder of the Cross – Day 15 – Forever More
Love, thou didst enter very softly in
To hold this heart of mine.
No sound, no stir, no sign!
How couldst thou cross my threshold all unseen?

‘Thou, O Christ, art all I want;
More than all in Thee I find:’
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 11 – Precious
I love these moments, these Trysting Places, with Our Beloved. With Vicky (and Whitney – see below) I must learn to go there not only when I am in a good place but also when all I want to do is hide in the bushes.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 10 – Listening
I have learnt that if I don’t aim to listen, if I don’t decide to set aside other voices – especially my own – I stand no chance of hearing any of the gentle whispers of Jesus.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 9 – Search Me
The answer, the only possible antidote to hate is not revenge but love. For only as we love those who hate us and God do we show that we have allowed the love of God to pierce our hearts and conquer our selfishness.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 8 – Great Is Your Glory
In the glow of the glory of God we can bask and find ourselves blessed not because of any achievement of our own but because God smiles on all things.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 7 – Everyone Under The Sun
However we meet or name God’s Love or wherever we have been we remain loved and welcome.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 3 – Break Our Hearts
We persevere whatever our failings or falling during Lent because
‘It’s time for us to live the songs we sing
And turn our good intentions into action.’
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 2 – Join The Song
One day, whether we like plainsong or hymns, choruses or Latin chant, we will all sing together forever. Perhaps, especially if the worship where we find ourselves is not familiar or to our taste, we need to learn to ‘Join the song’.
The Wonder of the Cross – Day 1 – Ash Wednesday – Captivated
Our Beloved, though we are unworthy, is, ‘captivated by us’(!) and our only response must be to allow our hearts to be stolen and spend the next 40 Days at least being ’Captivated by Him’.
