This is the day of the cross — dark, sorrowful, and still, somehow, good. The weight Christ bore is beyond bearing: sin laid upon innocence, love met with rejection, light extinguished. And yet, this is the day we venerate, for through that crushing burden, life was won.
We are asked to take up the cross as well. But not His. Ours is smaller, shaped for us. It may feel sharp or too much to carry — but it is not. It is light, He says. It is bearable. And when we believe this, even through tears, despair loosens its grip.
This sorrow is not the end. It is the way to joy.
