The Kitchen Table
Day 6
“The Cross”
For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps 1 Peter 2:21
A cross has a cause, a purpose. And from a cross Jesus called us to live for something worth dying for. A world seduced and sabotaged by sin needs someone to suffer for what is good and right and true in love. When we take up a cross, we take up a cause that we are willing to suffer and die for in this life. When we take up a cross, we pick up the cause of heaven in and through our hearts, our homes, and in humanity. Jesus called us from the cross to take up a cross that’s bigger than ourselves.
