the Cross

i just have to share with you something that spoke to me & broke my heart this morning as i sat in church. the guest speaker asked "how big is the Cross in your life?". simple question with such huge words behind it.
how big is it when i sit & worry about money?
how big is it when i become depressed or discouraged?
how big is it when i am consumed with the materlistic things in my life?
how big is it when i'm always wanting more more more? more money, more friends, more fun, more satisfaction..
how big is it as i sit in my BLESSED life discontent?
God moved in me this morning.
How MUCH He has done for me.
What POWER He has given me through what He accomplished on the CROSS.
when i stop focusing on the things around me & myself & i stop & focus on Christ everything in me says "It is okay. It is good." because THROUGH CHRIST ALONE can i find healing, peace, joy & contentment.
that is ALL i need.
