The Cross is the Proof

The cross is proof
there will be tomorrow,
that this time, these days,
will not be our last,
by the living Christ,
by the veil being torn…
 
The cross is the proof
of the resurrection, of life,
the ancient symbol of power,
transformed by Jesus,
by His rising from the grave,
by the empty tomb…
 
The cross is the proof
of Christ’s identity, His power,
that the resurrection happened,
that we have new life,
by Christ’s ascension,
by His promise to return…
