April 15-18, 2022
it wasn’t pretty, those three crosses on that stony hill no matter how we try decorating one with purple cloths it remains an instrument of torture, punishment, death
there would be pain, blood, screams and dreadful silence upon that rock, as souls escaped their transient homes silence, poured like the blood staining battered wood
silence that crept cold ground, confronted colder eyes threw justice, with devotion, into the careless winds joined the mocking laughter of brutal condemnation
no, the cross was not pretty, it could not have been the evil it confronted, defeated, was more ugly by far but the victory it bought surpasses all else in its glory
the ruler it cast down is the most horrid being ever the One it held the glorious King over all creation
