Pick it up and SMILE!

Jesus tells us very clearly that to Follow Him- We must take up our Cross every day... this requires that we TRUST Him in everything we do! God permits crosses in our lives because He is asking us to share in the Cross of Christ, to help Jesus to carry His cross, so we become participants in His redemption of the world! God descended to humanity-so that we would  be able to Ascend to Eternal life With Him! This  Treasure is  the greatest and must profound Gift God could ever provide! Our response can ONLY be profound Gratitude! May we embrace our difficulties, problems and challenges willingly, gratefully and joyfully as opportunities to grow in Holiness With Christ, For Christ and Through Christ! For it is His Strength, His Grace and our Willingness! Our Choice.... but ultimately also our Salvation! CHOOSE Well-Pick up the Cross, Give it a Smile and FOLLOW Him! Love and prayers! ✝️
