The last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. Classes, a totaled car, and a break in. This weekend we celebrated the feast of the Exaltation of the Cross. I went to mass with my daughter at Our Lady of Grace. The priest gave a marvelous homily about cross and if we really believed in the cross then it should be a game changer. It should make everything we do be seen through different eyes.
At the end of mass, he invited all to come up who had brought crosses to have them blessed. I looked at my daughter and thought, well we didn't bring any crosses to be blessed. Then it hit me. We had not brought any physical crosses to be blessed but we most certainly had brought crosses. I mean we definitely had them. It's not like we could have left these crosses outside the door of the church. We carry them wherever we go. So, she and I prayed that we might offer our crosses right there at the feet of Jesus.
