What Is Your Cross? | Alive: 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Manage episode 503961579 series 2584475
In this Sunday’s Gospel (Luke 14), Jesus tells us: “Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.”
Fr. Jonathan Meyer challenges us to name our particular cross—whether it’s addiction, gossip, sloth, low self-esteem, illness, financial struggles, or broken relationships—and to carry it with the help of Christ and others .
We cannot carry our crosses alone. Even Jesus was helped by Simon of Cyrene. We need friends, spiritual directors, counselors, and most of all the Lord to walk with us.
🙏 This week, take time to name your cross, own it, and bring it to Jesus. In doing so, you will grow as His disciple and become the saint God is calling you to be.
