The Cross

A precious resurrection day gift. This originl painting of the cross by Tina Clark. It provided a precious backdrop to the Sunday evening service at Cross & Crown to close out a beautiful Easter Sunday.

Paul asked these ladies pictured (Janice, Rachel and Judy) what the cross meant to them.

They all shared how the cross represents Jesus' love, and Rachel Whitmire commented how it is an image that pulls her closer to her heavenly Father (making her earthly father very proud!).

Janice said she can't help but thank the Lord for her very life when she looks upon the cross that represents God's sacrifice of his only son.

Janice shared she had survived a gun shot, and other life-threatening incidents throughout her life. She knows that it is only God's grace that has kept her alive on this earth. She has work still to do, she says. She has grandbabies and greatgrandbabies to look after.

Praise God for the stories he gives us to share.

Let us encourage one another and lift each other up. I Thes 5:11
