Prizing the Cross
John 19:17-25
And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:…


Tacitus reports that though the amber-ring among the Romans was of no value, yet, after the emperor began to wear it, it began to be in great esteem: it was the only fashion amongst them. So our Saviour has borne His cross, and was borne upon it. We should esteem it more highly than many of us do, and bear it daily in remembrance of Him.

(W. Baxendale.)
