In this picture I used silver reflective strips to line the natural cross on the Christian doors in the bathroom. Then with the make-up lights on I photographed the cross from the mirror across the room on the wall. I wanted to let alittle of the silver show so I angled the door where just a smigit of the silver would show with the end result being the golden glowing cross framed by the golden door. The orginal color of the door is white, but the mirror and lights show it as golden.

I can see your point ... that the christian cross bears a resemblance to the shape of the panels of the door. I understand from your title that it isn't coincidental, but rather an intentional symbolism. Cool so far. For me, however, this is not the intent of the framing challenge theme. Your foreground element doesn't frame the rest of the image.
Titles shouldn't matter, but I think you mean "their" not "there." Image looks out of focus and heavily artifacted. Even if this were a technically perfect shot, it would still lack in the lighting department, as well as fail to hold my interest.
