“There is but one center of mercy, one merciful event, in which we receive mercy and give it, or give it and receive it. This event is the saving mystery of the Cross, which alone enables us to enter into true spiritual harmony with one another, seeing one another not only in natural fellowship but in the Spirit and mercy of Christ.” (Thomas Merton) Does Merton’s idea of the Cross as the “center of mercy” resonate with you? How does the shadow of the cross change the way we see our neighbors? Christ, help me to put your Cross at the center of my Christ, that I might practice your merciful love.
