How often do I seek things for myself?
How often do I seek things for the Lord?
How often do I seek things "for the Lord" when in reality it is still for me?
Matthew 16:24-26: Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come with Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of Me will find it. What will it benefit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
Do I practice denying myself?
Why don't I practice denying myself?
Why do I insist on my way?
Why wont I take up my cross when He took my place on The Cross?
Thank you Kevin B., for this timely exhortation!
