Sterling Silver Cross Necklaces
Sterling silver cross necklaces are a great way for Christians to reflect on many of the various aspects the cross represents.
Here is a nice little uplifting story about one of the symbolism's of the cross.
"A young man was at the end of his rope, seeing no way out, dropped to his knees in prayer. "Lord, I can't go on," he said. "I have too heavy of a cross to bear."
The Lord replied, "My son, if you can't bear its weight, just place your cross inside this room. Then, open that other door and pick out any cross you wish."
The man was filled with relief and said, "Thank you, Lord," and he did as he was told. Upon opening the door, he saw many crosses, some so large the tops were not visible.
Then, he spotted a tiny cross leaning against a far wall. "I'd like that one, Lord," he whispered. And the Lord replied, " My son, that is the cross you just brought in."
When the cross you are bearing seems to heavy to go on with, look around and see what kinds of crosses others are bearing...It may just be that the cross you are called upon to bear is not near as heavy as the crosses others are bearing up.
The cross necklace is so popular because there are so many uses from the symbolism of the cross it only makes sense for a Christian to wear a cross necklace. Using a sterling silver cross necklace also makes sense for the affordability. When you are wearing something as sacred and important as a cross necklace you do not want to trust it to anything less than precious metals.
However gold cross necklaces is way to expensive for the typical Christian to wear. Sterling silver is the new gold in today's economy. Sterling silver is the most reflective of all precious metals and it is still affordable.
The necklace cross style of jewelry is a popular type of jewelry for cross wearing Christians.
