Mark 8
34 Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me. 35 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it.”
Turning from my selfish ways is so much easier said than done. Yet, it is what is required of me if I am to truly be a follower of Jesus. My Lord is not interested in half-hearted followers. You are either all in, or you are not in at all. I want to be counted among the “all in” crowd.
