Word-filled Wednesday



Then He said to them all, “If anyone wants to come with Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” ~ Luke 9:23 HCSB

Jesus made a sacrifice for you. Are you willing to make sacrifices for Him? Can you honestly say that you’re passionate about your faith and that you’re really following Jesus? Hopefully so. But if you’re preoccupied with other things or if you’re strictly a one day a week Christian then, it’s time to reorder your priorities.

Nothing is more important than your wholehearted commitment to your Creator and to His only begotten Son. Your faith must never be an afterthought; it must be your ultimate priority, your ultimate possession, and your ultimate passion.

You are the recipient of Christ’s love. Accept it willingly and share it passionately. Jesus deserves your extreme enthusiasm; the world deserves it; and you deserve the experience of sharing it.

This verse reminds me that to be a Christian is easy but to live a real Christian life is really hard. God didn't promise us a life without thorns instead He reminds us that each of us has our own cross to carry. But good thing is, we have Christ to whom we can come any time we feel weary.

Thanks for the visit and for the wonderful verse.

One of my ALL TIME favorite verses...not because it's easy, but because it's hard...I loved the reminder!
