FOCUSED ON CHRIST AND HIS CROSS
Focused on Christ & His Cross
"Focus on Christ will always result in focus on the cross. You cannot be Christ-centered without becoming cross-centered. The crucified Christ is to be the center of everything I know about myself and my world. You cannot have any real hope for flawed people in a fallen world unless there is a Redeemer to rescue us from the evil that resides both inside and outside of us. Real restoration to God's created design requires the cross. It is the cross of Christ that alone will restore my allegiance to Christ and his rightful place at the center of everything in my life."
- Paul David Tripp, A Quest for More (Greensboro, NC: New Growth Press, 2007), 104.

Howdy! I saw that you stopped by the
Campfire earlier, and I wanted to drop in and let you know that it was
great to see you there, and you're welcome back anytime!

@cowboy_christian - thanks Cowboy
I saw that you subscribed! I am honoured! I hope that the poetry and stories you read and the conversations we have serve to point us both closer to the One I serve: Jesus Christ!
Saddle Up! Let's Ride!

Susan, Jesus said when He is lifted high, then all men will come to Him. It's all about His gift to us on the cross, isn't it?
