Blessing of the Holy Cross

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Egypt to the desert What did God do for the Israelites? He made pharaoh submit to His will and release his people Moses, with God’s hand, struck the sea and split it. The Lord led them with a cloud by day, and a pillar of fire by night. The Lord sent His people manna and quails so that they wouldn’t starve. When they were walking in the wilderness and needed water, God gave them water from a rock. He cared about their souls and gave Moses the Two tablets of Covenant.

Any experience? Have you had an experience where you felt the presence of God? God did all the miracles to Israelites…and while they were in the desert, God gave manna & quails…but… they complained about the manna and quail that they ate for a long time in the wilderness. So, God sent fiery serpent among the people. Remember we talked about the tongue last weeks?

“I’m Sorry” Why were they punished? Did they realize what they were doing was wrong? They went to Moses and said: “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us.”

Forgive them So Moses prayed for the people What do you think God said? God was sooo mad at them that He didn’t listen to Moses……….right?

The bronze serpent God LOVED Moses and His people soo much…especially since they repented. He told Moses to make a bronze serpent and put it on a pole so that anyone that was bitten could look at it and live.

What does the serpent resemble? Who else heals us from our sin, no matter WHEN, how MANY, and how HORRIBLE? The bronze serpent = The sacrifice of Christ

The Cross can save us O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? …thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 COR 15:55&57

Using the Cross Jesus prayer : 1) use the rosary we made on the activity day, any suitable time, in the school bus....etc 2) while in the bed just before falling sleeping and as soon as we wake-up even before getting out of the bed.
