Product Description
This Labyrinth Cross Pendant makes a great Christian gift for all those searching for meaning and growth in their lives. At 1.5 x 1.5 inches, this solid bronze cross pendant comes with a black nylon cord. This cross is the perfect gift for all those seekers of truth in our lives who have embarked on an inward journey of self-realization and transformation or on an outward journey in search of faith, meaning and enlightenment.
A Christian Gift for Seekers
The labyrinth and cross together make this gift meaningful and liberating: We can and should examine and question the labyrinth of our own faith and beliefs, as well as the labyrinth of philosophies and sources of wisdom, but always with the conviction that Christ is our companion on this journey. This pendant, created by a master artist in Germany, makes a beautiful Christian gift.
The labyrinth has a rich and multi-leveled history that lends this cross its profound symbolic importance. In Christian history (for example, at the cathedral of Chartres, France), the labyrinth is a meditative tradition – the faithful can contemplate as they walk its sinuous curves. For Carl Jung, the labyrinth symbolized the unconscious and its mazes, with one entrance (birth) and one center (the divine). The labyrinth also appears in various cultures throughout the world and throughout history, including in Egypt and Native American cultures.
In all cases, the fundamental draw of labyrinths is the way in which they represent the winding path of our search for wisdom and God. For example, for one walking in a labyrinth, the route may seem random and hodgepodge. But one is always being pushed along by the hand of design toward the center of the labyrinth. So it is with our own personal journeys toward God. Some of us take windier paths than others, and though the path may seem random (or we may seem lost) at times, the design of life, and the pull of God, is such that whoever seeks him in good faith will indeed find him.
That is why this cross is such a meaningful gift to Christians who are in a period of deep searching – the symbolism reminds them that they are not the first to embark on such a search, and that spirituality informed by this search is in the long run stronger. Most importantly, it is a Christian gift that is a source of comfort – for it reminds the recipient that not only does the journey of the labyrinth inevitably lead to God, but the fact that the labyrinth is surrounded by a cross reminds them that even the dark journey is surrounded and permeated by God’s grace.
Many times the process of making an important decision doesn’t unfold the way we thought it would. It bears repeating — the process is a spiral rather that a straight line from point A to point B. — from An Ignatian Approach to Decision-Making by Michael Sparough, SJ
