The Heart of the Cross
The wound at the heart of the cross:
It bore Truth and Peace cruelly
It took Goodness and Love to death
Injustice has wounded it deeply
But Goodness and Love do not die
Truth and Peace live eternally
The wound at the heart of the cross:
Sacred Heart we entrust all to thee
(The God of surprises at work, perhaps. I found this amazing piece of wood in my workshop this morning. Its shape and grain, along with the deep wound at its core, seemed to speak to me of the feast day today- The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. You can see and/or purchase crosses I have made here. Thank you! Peace)

Our Saviour took so much pain for us. Jesus help us to carry any cross you send our way. We trust in your love. No cross will ever be as heavy as yours or too heavy for us to carry.
Jim such a beautiful piece of wood to find today. Uncanny.
Just popping over to St. John’s for prayers.
Goodnight God bless xx
