Bear your cross

Bear your cross
 
There is an ethereal beauty
in the quiet carrying of a burden
 
(all burdens being God-given).
In the submission of every Christ
 
bearing His cross up Calvary’s hill,
in the outstretched arms, crown of thorns,
 
the driven spikes, there manifests
over time an unearthly majesty, dignity
 
and ultimate ecstasy, a holy acquittal
from shame, culpability, exile and fear. 
 
O child of God, to meekly bear your cross
is to surrender to your eternal liberation.
