Then he said to them all: "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
Luke 9:23-26 NIV
Luke 9:23-26 NIV
This is quite a serious call to follow. Jesus calls us to follow him, not as an add-on to our lives, but to be the very core of our lives. That we should forsake all others and give up all, even our lives.
This is not just a one time decision, but one that is made daily.
The call is serious and complete but it holds the very key to find life!
