http://www.gospelines.com "True Life" "Then Jesus called the crowd to him, along with his followers. He said, 'If people want to follow me, they must give up the things they want. They must be willing even to give up their lives to follow me. Those who want to save their lives will give up true life. But those who give up their lives for me and for the Good News will have true life.' " (Mark 8:34-35) The crowd stands there, jeering and deriding us to conform and find acceptance. Jesus looks through the blood and sweat stinging his eyes and calls us to be followers of the cross. One says follow me and I will give you pleasure. God says I will give you everlasting life. The crowd offers immediate satisfaction. Jesus promises suffering. Live it up and be happy cries the crowd. Endure the pain of commitment and LIVE our Lord pleads. GospeLines Prayer: "Thank You, Father, for giving me the choice of eternal life. If my life is to be one of suffering in order to find true happiness, I would rather die a thousand deaths than to miss one moment with you in eternity!" Amen and amen. Tommy Harrison www.gospelines.com Amen and Amen! _____________________________________________________ O.
