But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ . . .
---Galatians 6:14
Today, we celebrate the Exaltation of Christ's Holy and Life-giving Cross,
by which our sin sickness has been cured, and we are made whole and well.
By its salutary effect, Christians shall never suffer the loss
of their souls to the relentlessly gaping maul of hell.
