‘What has the Cross given to those who have gazed upon it and to those who have touched it?

What has the Cross left in each one of us?

The Cross gives us a treasure that no one else can give: the certainty of the faithful love which God has for us.

A love so great that it enters into our sin and forgives it, that enters into our suffering and gives us the strength to bear it.

It is a love which enters into death to conquer it and to save us.

 -Pope Francis
