But far be it from me to glory in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. ~Gal 6:14
What beautiful days these are in our liturgical year! Today we celebrate the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, tomorrow Our Lady of Sorrows. Such highs and lows, such joy and sadness! Yet, still and always, the glory of the Lord is revealed to us in the thick of it all. His is the glory of love -- unquenchable love, triumphant love, unconquerable love! Love that embraces all, love that suffers all, love that overcomes all! Love that draws all unto Himself, love that unites us forever in the one bond of love, love that will never let us go! Amazing love, abounding love, admirable love! May we always rejoice in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ! And, with Mary, His mother and ours, may we always stand "by him, sharing his sufferings" and those of all our brothers and sisters. Thanks be to God for His inexpressible gift! (1 Cor 9:15)
