Morning Prayer: The Cross


Good morning, Lord. In our churches, with their polished and lighted crosses, it’s easy to forget the ugliness of Your cross. Forgive me for my lopsided focus: seeing Your love and forgetting Your holiness, seeing the empty tomb and forgetting the cross, feeling the joy and forgetting the pain.

Teach me to own up to my sin and appreciate the enormity of Your sacrifice.
