Inspiration: Mark 8:34-9:1
In today’s world of modern technology, fast pace life, and big dreams, who would want to forget oneself and carry crosses?
Well, following Jesus, that’s still “in” as long as it’s fun; as long as “I” do it and get something out of it that satisfies “me” and make “me” feel good; as long as “I” would change only to the point “I” wanted to, beyond that? No, thanks! “I” can only offer this…
Thank God, in this modern world of technologies there still springs the likes of Mother Theresa of Calcutta and Pope John Paul II, who remind us of the virtues Jesus wants to cultivate within us…
If we want to come with Jesus, we have to forget ourselves, forget our sinful ways, our worldly desires, our selfish dreams…we have to carry our cross and endure the transformation process where we will be in the fire of purification…and follow Jesus, His desires, His virtues, His deeds…and we gain undisguised joy and happiness as we truly find Jesus in our hearts…
Put Jesus above everything…
Jesus first! All others, just second and third and so on….
Have a Winning Life!
