Do You Need The Cross Every day?
This is an exert from a Billy Graham Lesson
Shared By Mark Flippo
Matthew 10:38 ESV
And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
Luke 9:23
“If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.”
What Jesus was telling them is that they needed to put to death their own plans and desires, and then turn their lives over to Him and do His will everyday. You see, Jesus doesn’t simply call us to believe that He existed, or even to believe that He can save us. He calls on us to commit our whole lives to Him to trust Him alone for our salvation, and then to follow Him as His disciples.
