Let's MSPaint the O Antiphons (day 6!)

[cheyinka]

As I explained on Monday, the seven evenings before Christmas Eve each have one of seven antiphons; since they all start with "O", they're the "O Antiphons". Monday's was "O Sapientia", Tuesday's was "O Adonai", Wednesday's was "O Radix Jesse", Thursday's was "O Clavis David", and yesterday's was "O Oriens". Here's today's:

O Rex gentium, et desideratus earum, lapisque angularis, qui facis utraque unum: veni, et salva hominem, quem de limo formasti. (O King of nations, and their Desired, the cornerstone who makes all one: come and save our race, whom you formed out of clay.)

I drew a crown for this one, but I thought about just drawing a stone. If Christ's the cornerstone that makes us one, and we're clay, that means becoming part of that structure would involve being compressed into a stone or a brick. Becoming a brick would have to be pretty unpleasant, and being used by God can be awfully, well, awful, but we have a God who's suffered with us and for us; we're not alone in the kiln.
