 Moderator's Message Minimize

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” St. Matthew 16:13-17

Jesus had just prophesied (verse 21) the suffering, death and resurrection which he would endure. The verse above was his response to the disciples who, led by Peter, exclaimed against such horror. It is apparent that to follow in His way, is not an easy path, but rather one of denial of self, burdens (“cross”), and still be a messenger of love and hope. Some might say, let us not expect an easy life, but rather strength greater than our burdens.

Then Jesus went on to say:

“For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

“For what is a man profited, is he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:25-26

We understand that to be solely focused on this earthly life and material gain is truly short term thinking. Life as we know it here on earth is short. Life in spiritual terms, is eternal. To subrogate our spirituality for materialism, is to lose our soul. To follow His path while carrying our “cross”, is to gain enlightenment. It could be said that Jesus was a prime example of “tough love”. A coach and mentor who discerned what His students could become, true potential to be developed through the many challenges we face, not just for oneself, but to be able to give encouragement to others.

“Ye are the light of the world…

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” St. Matthew 5:14,16

May God Bless you and yours.
