Episode 38 -- Imitation of Christ II.12.2 -- The Royal Road of the Cross (Necessity)
Why is the Cross a Royal road?
Christ walked this road. In this reading, Thomas a Kempis explains why our carrying our own cross is a royal road. A road is royal that a King walks. To walk a royal road is to follow the steps of the king. Christ has shown us the path that leads to his Father in heaven. We must not be afraid to carry our Cross. There is no other road that Christ walked. There is no other road that leads to heaven.
