The Dream of the Rood

"The Dream of the Rood" was a personal account illustrating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The writer makes mention of an attractive illuminated gem tree that was used to persecute Jesus on the cross. The cross was used to crucify an evil doer in those days. Despite this fact, the cross of Jesus didn't embrace an evil doer; but it embraced the total sins of mankind. All creation wept, as our Creator was on the cross. There are going to be rough situations, but we as Christians must remain strong. Just as Jesus died for our sins; we must be willing to pick up the cross and die for Him.

-L Carey
