WE BEGIN OUR JOURNEY TO THE CROSS
WITH JESUS – WITH EACH OTHER.
FOR SOME A NEW UNTRODDEN JOURNEY,
FOR OTHERS A WELL-LOVED ROAD.
NOT AN EASY JOURNEY, BUT ONE MARKED
WITH LOSS AND SACRIFICE AND DEATH.
BUT WE MUST KNOW THIS LOSS THAT GOD
MAY FILL US UP WITH HIS LOVE AND SPIRIT.
WE MUST KNOW THIS SACRIFICE TO SHOW
OUR GRATITUDE TO GOD FOR HIS PROMISES.
WE MUST KNOW THIS DEATH TO KNOW
NEW AND ABUNDANT LIFE IN CHRIST.
