Simple Silver Cross Necklace |
catholic cross and silver crosssimple cross and crossThe cross is a symbol on which I was raised. Although I cannot remember the first prayer I was taught, it is highly likely that, as with nearly all Catholic children, I was initially taught to make the sign of the cross. This ritual dates back at least to the early third century, in Tertullian (ca. 160-230) we read, We make the sign of the cross on our forehead at every turn, at our going in or coming out of the house, while dressing, while putting on our shoes, when we are taking a bath, before and after meals, when we light the lamps, when we go to bed or sit down, and in all the ordinary activities of daily life. Go back to the simple days with this calming 1 inch cross around your neck.
