The True Cross Relic of our Savior Jesus Christ is the greatest and most precious of all relics. It is only to the True Cross, from among all other relics, that the Christian faithful are instructed to genuflect.
Every other image and relic (whether of our Lord or of any of the saints) is venerated by a bow, but the relic of the True Cross is adored and worshiped with a 'Genuflection' and a kiss.

† = place the sign of the cross upon yourself.
Arise, O' God, and let Thine enemies be scattered;
and let those who hate Thee flee from Thy presence.
As smoke vanishes, let them vanish and as wax melts from the presence of fire, so let demons perish from the presence of those who love God and who sign ourselves with the sign of the Cross † and say
in gladness: Hail, most precious and life‐giving Cross

God’s desire is for His Word to be known and believed, with the result that people are transformed (Luke 6:46). To reject the light we’ve been given is to remain in darkness.
To spurn the grace of God and reject the Savior is to receive the due penalty for our sin.

The reliquary measures
2 inches in height: the True Cross is the name for those physical remnants and the subject of those literary records which, by a widely accepted Christian tradition, are believed to be those of the Cross upon which, according to the Gospel writers, Jesus was crucified. According to a number of early writers, the Empress Helen , (c.255-c.330 AD), mother of Constantine , the first Christian emperor of Rome, at a date after 312 AD when Christianity was legalized throughout the Empire, traveled to the Holy Land, founding churches and establishing relief agencies for the poor. It was at this time that she discovered the hiding place of three crosses used at the crucifixion of Jesus and the two thieves that were executed with him. By a miracle it was revealed which of the three was the True Cross. This article details the records, the legends and the traditions associated with the True Cross. This is commemorated by the Church on March 6 . Many churches now possess fragmentary remains which are by tradition claimed to be those of the True Cross. Their authenticity is not universally accepted by those of the Christian faith. The veracity of the reports surrounding the discovery of the True Cross is questioned by many Christians. The acceptance and belief of that part of the tradition that pertains to the Early Christian Church is generally accepted by the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches. < press links >
'Suffering with Love'
An Invitation to Love the Holy Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ:
While commemorating the forty days Our Lord fasted in the desert,
we should remember a great and supreme truth that should illuminate all Lenten meditations. The holy Gospels clearly show how much our merciful Savior pitied our spiritual and physical pains. Hence,
He performed spectacular miracles to mitigate them. However,
let us not imagine that these healing's were the greatest gift He gave mankind. This would not take into consideration the central aspect
of Our Lord’s life: He was our Redeemer, Who willingly endured the cruelest sufferings to carry out His mission. Even at the height of His Passion, Our Lord could have put an end to all His pains instantly by
a mere act of His Divine will. From the first moment of His Passion to the last, He could have ordered His wounds to heal, His precious blood to stop pouring forth and the lacerations on His Divine body to disappear without a scar. He could have overcome the persecution that was dragging Him to death and gained a brilliant and jubilant victory. However, He did not will this. He wanted to be led along the
Via Dolorosa to the height of Golgotha. He willed to see His most
holy Mother engulfed in the depths of sorrow and He wanted to cry
out in piercing words that will echo until the consummation of the ages: “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?” (Matt. 27:46).
We understand that by calling each of us to suffer a portion of His Passion, He clearly indicated the unrivaled role of the cross in the history of the world, His glorification and the whole of men’s lives. Thus,
we still must pronounce our own 'consummatum est' at death, despite the pains and sorrows of life. If we misunderstand the role
of the cross, refuse to love it and fail to walk along our own
Via Dolorosa, we will shirk Providence’s designs for us.
We will be unable, with our dying breaths, to repeat the sublime exclamation of Saint Paul: “I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As for the rest,
there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just
judge will render to me in that day” (2 Tim. 4:7-8).
Any quality, however exalted, will be useless,
unless it is founded on a love of Our Lord’s cross,
with which we obtain everything, though weighed down by the
holy burden of purity and other virtues, unceasing attacks and mockeries of the Church’s enemies and betrayals of false friends.
The greatest foundation, of Christian civilization is a generous love
for the Holy Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ in each and every person.
May Mary help us, and through her omnipotent intercession,
we shall reconquer for her Divine Son, the reign of God that
flickers so faintly in the hearts of men.
