Take some time to stare at a Crucifix intently
Stare at the Lord in His Passion
Staring at Our Lord on the Cross long enough
Destroys the meaning of all earthly history that has taken place since
Staring at Him on the Cross, I would be thinking exactly the same thing at any point over the past 2000 years, whether I am:
- Entering into the Colosseum to be persecuted
- Marching into the Holy Land to liberate it
- Sitting on the side of the road cold and lonely and desperate for attention
He is alive - on the Cross and in our temples
Staring at Our Lord in His Passion trumps the meaning of any particular time and
destroys all relativism
Nothing else in human history matters in comparison to this moment
You may enter into this moment to be with Him simply through intent contemplation
He has resurrected, so He is there to reveal
This has to be the reason the Crucifix was taken away from the churches by the heretics
THE Seminal Moment in the history of the universe
When God the Father
Proved Undeniably That He Loved Us
By Allowing His Only Son, The Word
To Leave His Side
And to Become a man
And then, as a man
To Become the Lamb
To be laid on wood
Mocked and humiliated
Sacrificed
To gather the fallen man
Scattered after the Tower of Babel
So that man could be forgiven
Since this moment, nothing else matters
Man may comprehend this meaning as he stares at the Crucifix
If he does, he is saved
