The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanНамуна

Taking Up Your Cross

Imagine someone who willingly carries a heavy load every day because they are committed to a cause greater than themselves. This burden is not easy to bear, but their dedication drives them. Following Jesus involves self-denial and carrying our cross, symbolizing our willingness to endure hardship and sacrifice for His sake, just as He did for us.

Practical Application: Reflect on what it means to take up your cross and follow Jesus. Identify areas where you need to practice self-denial and commit to following Him more closely.
