Summary: <br> The Cross of Christ Transforms. . .How We See Jesus<br> Steps to Take as You Follow Christ<br> Ask—Am I overly familiar with Christ?<br> Seek—Read the Gospels every day. Encounter Christ as he is presented and try to imagine him in the world today, doing the same acts, confronting unbelief in the modern world.<br> Knock—Meditate on 1 Peter 2:4–5.<br> Come to him, to that living stone, rejected by men but in God’s sight chosen and precious; and like living stones be yourselves built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.<br> Think also about the life of St. Peter; what about his experience of Christ might have led him to come up with this image?<br> Transform Your Life—There is nothing that exists that can transform our lives more than a relationship with Jesus Christ as he really is—give your life to Christ. Believe, placing all of your trust in his powerful being, and embrace his power in your weakness.<br> <a href="http://amywelborn.com/Michael_Dubruiel.html" rel="attachment wp-att-21024"></a><br> The author of “<a href="http://amywelborn.com/Michael_Dubruiel.html" target="_blank">The Power of the Cross: Applying the Passion of Christ in Your Life“</a>, Michael Dubriuel, passed away in 2009.
