Is Jesus on Your Cross.

You NAY be bearing heavy cross-a
cross that bears you to the very earth
with its weight and crucifxion, and you
receive no power of life from it, because
Jesus is not on it.
There is an old legend that "when
the Empress Helena went to the Holy
Land in search Of the true cross, excava-
lions and great researches were made,
and at last three crosses were dis
covered; but how were they to decide
which was the true cross? They ap-
preached a dead body and laid one
cross after another upon it, and when
the cross of Jesus touched the cold, life
less form, it at once sprang up in new
life and vigor."
We use this fable to illustrate great
spiritual truth. When the cross of
Christ touches dead souls they spring
into new life. The presence of this new
spiritual life is the test of the genuine
ness of our Christianity and our fidelity
to the cross.
Jesus said: IF any man will be my
disciple let him deny himself and take
up his cross and follow me-" Surely
the Master did not mean the rich crosses
that glitter on high affairs, and tower
above lofty domes, or the beautiful
crosses that crowd richly furnished
dwellings; or the crosses worn as orna-
ments, alike by the rich and poor. These
bring no life from the dead. Too often
they are meaningless symbols that mock
heaven and mislead men.
But there is true cross with a Christ
upon it, that brings life, JOY, and glad
ness, to dead souls. 1t is the cross of
doing duty when it is hard to do it. of
standing by the right even unto death, if
need be Of following Jesus even though
He leads through desert places and fiery
furnaces. 1t is the cross of yielding
heart, life and will of Him, and walking
humbly and obediently in his command
ments toiling on patiently in the sphere
Of duty He assigns meekly and patient
ly doing his will, and joyfully accepting
trials, because of love for Him.
Reader, is Jesus on your cross? Does
it bring spiritual life to your soul and
are its fruits to be seen in your daily life
