Luke 9:23-25

Read the passage. This isn't something we normally like to do, deny ourselves. We like to indulge in the flesh and allow our flesh determine what we do. This is contrary to what Jesus is saying. he says, "...if anyone would follow me he must deny himself..." What does that mean? is he really saying to not have the things you want? Is he really saying we must suffer? Is being a Christian easy or hard? I think we need to deny our flesh more...I think we need to do it all the time. Stop being selfish, stop thinking of what you want and do what the father wills. Allow him to move in you and use you in incredible ways. Is it worth it to live for yourself or to live for Him? We have this short amount of time to live for him and we must do it! WE MUST DO IT!!!!!
