Jesus invites us to set aside our selfish ambitions and embrace the challenges that come with following Him. This path is not always easy, but it offers a life filled with purpose and genuine love. By taking up our cross, we share in His suffering and find redemption and peace. This act of self-denial is not a sign of weakness but of strength and commitment to a higher calling. It calls us to live with humility and to put the needs of others before our own, following the example of Jesus. In this surrender, we find a joy and peace that the world cannot offer.
Then Jesus told his disciples, 'If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.'
Matthew 16:24
