“… Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me…,” (Matt 16:24). Carry your Cross means embrace it or make it your own or endure it.
None of us likes cross or suffering. Our natural inclination is to avoid cross or suffering at all costs. In realities we are not free from physical, mental illness, poverty, worries, boredom, anxieties, failures, frustrations and death of those dear to us. These problem of suffering will be solved by the person of Christ when we are willingly take hold and carry them.
We put all our crosses and suffering on our back of Jesus then we shall see Jesus in our actions. We need to be patient, trust and confidence in the Lord. Be a Jesus disciple.
“When you have many kinds of trials, you should be full of joy, because you know that these trials test your faith, and this will give you perseverance,” (James 1:2-3).
