SImple Thoughts on the Cross

I used to teach my children that the Cross is the centre of the entire universe. In fact, I likened it to the mathematical number plane, where the x and y axis - both of which travel to eternity in every direction, intersect at zero, the very centre of the number plane, forming a cross (for those of you who can remember high school maths). I also used to explain the wonders of the Cross and its mathematical proportions, known as the Golden Mean, found time and time again in nature and music....the very signature of God surrounds those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. But for those who are not mathematically or scientifically minded, we discovered the Cross in our neighbour's backyard as well!


For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:20

God bless you, dear friends.

I was also a dunce at maths - it didn't really interest me, but somehow my brain stored some seemingly useless stuff which it surprisingly retrieves at the right moment! Don't ask me how.
