Near our church is Mount Rubidoux. At the peak of the mountain you can clearly see a cross. There is a long pathway you can travel to view the cross.
A fee years ago, there was a lawsuit saying that the cross could not be on public land. Therefore, the city decided to solicit bids for the parcel upon which the cross stood. Fortunately, the cross was saved when the bidding results were revealed.
It seems that the cross is always under attack. I has become a visible symbol on mountains, t-shirts and jewelry. It is because the cross symboylizes where Christ gave His life for us.
Tonight, would you pray that the meaning of the cross is alive and present in the hearts of God's people? Would you pray that the cross would show people the hope that can be found in Jesus.
19 For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross. Colossians 1:19-20
