Kadin - Matthew 16:24-27

Then Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? (Matthew 16:24-26 NIV)


Jesus lost all selfishness for us on the cross and He calls us to do the same. I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul. What if everyone at school teases you - how will you respond? What if you say no to something that everyone else is doing?

We have to be strong in our faith and trust God to guide us.

Good word Diddy! (He is keeping a notebook with a scripture each day ....it's awesome!)
