Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross
NM 21:4-0; Psalm 78:1-2,34-38; Phil 2:6-11; John 3:13-17

complaining
“not good enough”
we look
to the one
who is
held high
upon a cross
and we see
the mystery
of our salvation
in one
who emptied
himself
for all others
to see
a love
beyond
our understanding
in this world
yet
completed
in another
revealing
our divine nature

What do you see when you behold the cross?
