EVERYONE has a CROSS. Many times, more than one. They take form in our struggles and fears; our anger and situations. BUT the question isn't how many crosses or what crosses we have...the REAL question is WHAT DO YOU DO with your cross? Do you embrace it, or throw it away? Do you FACE IT or do you HIDE it. Do you ACCEPT it or do you COMPLAIN about it? JESUS tells us what to do..."Take up your cross". This translates into, "EMBRACE, FACE, and ACCEPT your cross" just like HE DID. Sure, its easy to say PRAISE GOD or HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD, but can we then FOLLOW his way? Do we have the courage to WALK like him?
