The seal of the Work: the Cross at the heart of the world. It is not like a medal that encircles the cross, or restricts its extent, or where it ought to be.
The circle is not a circle. It is a globe. And inside that globe, that planet, that world, are you and me and the entire world of human beings, all of God’s creation.
Paul Miki and his companions were raised on crosses in the 16th century in Japan. They forgave their executioners. In 1931, Saint Josemaria had a mystical experience as he raised the host after the consecration. He heard the words from John 12: "And when I am lifted up on the earth, I will draw all things to myself….” He understood that this was Christ referring to being lifted up on the cross, but in a fuller sense he also understood that it would be the men and women of God who would lift the cross of Christ with his doctrine and to the summit of all human activities.
How do we draw all things to Christ? How does that happen? What indeed is the attractive, the magnetic power of the cross of Christ?
