It [sign of the cross] reminds us that because Jesus has redeemed us by His death on the cross, we know belong to Him - branded and copyrighted, as it were. We therefore live our whole life under the sign of the cross. As we get up each morning, we, in a small way, share in the resurrection of Jesus; as we go to bed each evening, we share in His death. So all we do and all that happens to us is done in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. -- John Kleinig, *Grace Upon Grace* p. 79
