“I can meet with my Savior and my Abba Father anytime, anywhere, because He promised to never leave or forsake me and because His Spirit lives in me. But, the times I’ve been so burdened, my immediate thought is to go up to the Cross. Here in Kerrville, that means The Empty Cross at The Coming King Sculpture Garden. My first visit was with my women’s Sunday School class from First Baptist Church was at the end of May 2013. We met with Max Greiner for well over two hours. He explained the history of the Cross and the vision for its future. We all shared our needs and burdens. Afterward, we entered into The Empty Cross where we prayed for these named and unnamed cares and concerns of my classmates, as well as for the Cross and its purpose in reaching others for Christ. At the moment of our collective ‘Amen’ the sun came out. In the sunlight we could see that all of us had the unexplainable ‘Glory Dust’ on us. At that exact moment, with the sun popping through, all of us could see it on one another! As we happily looked at one another through the tears, I know my ‘sisters’ enjoyed the assurance of His presence and peace only the Lord can provide. I know some of us also experienced relief from some of our physical problems. As a child of the KING, it’s impossible to say what having immediate access to His throne means to me. But, we also have free access to this amazing place here in the Texas Hill County. The Empty Cross. If you are looking for the atypical place to visit in your travels, The Empty Cross will not disappoint, and will provide much more than you can imagine. Come to The Empty Cross.”
