Walk with the cross

Hello everyone,
​
I hope all is well and you’re ready to start your day off on a good note.  We must remember that we make our day and it’s our choice to have a good or bad day with whatever we have on our plate.  Most of the time, we create the chaos that’s going on in our lives.  When we don’t follow the word of God, we’re stuck on just doing what’s best for us and not what’s best for the Body of Christ.

It’s critical that we know why we’re here and our role on our journey.  When everything is going well, we’re good and when things fall apart in our lives, we act like we lost everything.  Well, let me say this:  JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS SO THAT WE MAY LIVE.  It’s our job to sacrifice for HIM.  He said pick up the cross and walk with me.  What do you think that means?  It means, live your journey one day at a time, know that God is with you through whatever and allow your light to shine so that people can see Jesus in you.

That’s not easy but it’s making a difference and allowing God to work through us.  When we carry the cross, we hurt, we go through pain and we’re uncomfortable at times.  This life is not about us but about good and evil.  God said if you stand up for me, you will be rewarded. This goes way beyond what I’m saying because when I say walk with the cross, that means loving when you don’t want to, forgiving when it’s too much and being kind when people are doing you wrong.  We have to remember that when we love, we help so many and when we hate we hurt so many.  Let’s get it together so that we can be at peace on our journey and make it to heaven.

This gift of life that we are given is a blessing and God doesn’t have to give us second chances all the time.  If we just taste and see the goodness of the Lord, we will be able to witness His precious Divine Mercy and want to give hope to the world.  We must remember that what we do determine each day and the consequences that we make determine our future. 

However, through all of this, we can still have joy but let’s stop complaining about our lives and blaming others for how our life is but instead pick up the cross, walk with Jesus and know that you have a purpose and that is to grow in His name to help His children.
​
Amen and Thank You Lord.
