"So Christ, our heavenly King,
came to till the soil of mankind
devastated by sin.
He assumed a body and,
using the cross as His plowshare,
cultivated the barren soul of man."
St. Macarius wrote these words
i am thankful for the Church
She preserves and collects the words of the saints
i am thankful for their poetic
expressions, metaphors, analogies,
their creativity in spreading the Truth
we all can agree
our sometimes frozen hard souls
need to be plowed by the cross
i know mine does.
