Take up His Cross

Anyone who goes to church, reads the bible or listens to televangelists is very aware of the promises of God. The blessings are bountiful in all areas: Physical, financial, emotional and spiritual. We gain hope and our faith is increased in God’s blessings. It is more difficult to look at the responsibility we have to choose the way that allows these blessings to flow in our life. Have you ever considered a rocky relationship as a blessing from God? Our natural instinct is to get away from anything that is unpleasant. We have that choice. If you truly want to experience God’s blessing in your relationship, allow Him to renew you and take you through what looks like an impossibility.

(Luke 9:23) And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
