Many years ago, during severe persecution, Christians created a way to safely communicate. When meeting a stranger, a Christian drew an arc in the dirt. If the stranger responded by drawing a connecting arc, the symbol was complete, and they shared a common bond in Jesus.

On the Cross, Jesus conquered the sin that once separated us so that we can have a personal relationship with Him. In a way, He was drawing each of us an arc in the dirt. As Christians, we responded by loving Him with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength. With a bond unbreakable, Jesus promises to always love us and never leave us.
