A Reflection On The Cross

When I want to experience the depths of God’s wisdom

Becoming wise in the ways of the Kingdom is like putting on a set of strange, new clothes. We look different and we feel different. This is no illusion; we are different. And the Cross is our holy invitation to go deep. We are not saved for superficiality. Instead, we are beckoned into the wisdom that underlies the foundation of this universe, called to understand its purpose, its dynamics, its direction, and its needs. The invitation is more remarkable than we might think; it is a summons to participate in the works of God. Never be afraid to go deep.

The privilege of the believer is to share in the deep things of God. The Cross was a secret mystery from before the beginning of time, but now it is revealed for our glory (1 Corinthians 2:7). We are colaborers with Him, sharing in His likeness! All creation must marvel at the sight. Never be content with staying on the surface, and never assume you’ve learned enough. God is deeper than most people know. Dive into the depths of His wisdom.

His Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets.

1 Corinthians 2:10
