When Jesus calls us to take up our cross, He is doing much more - TopicsExpress



          

When Jesus calls us to take up our cross, He is doing much more than calling us to endure the daily, circumstantial troubles of life. He is calling us to be willing to suffer anything and forsake everything for the sake of the gospel. His call is to love those who have cheated us in business; those who have spread nasty rumors about us; those who would kill us if they could; those who disagree with us politically, practically, and fundamentally. His call is for total surrender. He calls us to give up all that we have, to give even to the point of offering up our lives as a living sacrifice. His call means realizing that His power is made perfect in our weakness, that when we are weak we are also strong (2 Cor. 12:9-10).
