Reflections 7/23/2020: I got a surprise package in the mail from a friend, and here’s what emerged from the wrappings. A mosaic cross, hand made by her from broken pottery! So symbolic of how God uses seemingly worthless shards of our broken pieces to make something beautiful! WOW! Thank you my friend! My trek through cancer is nothing compared to what you have been through. That infuses this mosaic cross with ALL the more meaning as I consider God’s faithful artistry in ransoming shattered pieces in your own life for something good! Shared journeys to hell and back… with shekinah glory radiating from our faces from our courageous journeys. I especially love the addition of a sand dollar in the center of the cross! Rich with meaning from the life, death and resurrection of Jesus! (Goggle that!) The cross, an excruciating execution apparatus becomes a mosaic of redemptive power and sacrificial love! From sharp-edged shards to saving grace!
