"Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me." -Mark 8:34
How often do we want our resurrection without our crucifixion? How often do we pray to God to change certain things, without being willing to make any sacrafice on our part to effect the change?
I am really stumped about what my cross is. What does my Heavenly King want me to be sacraficing?
I have a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, that the sacrafice is marriage. I think God wants me not to find someone and not to be with someone so I can better carry out His work. I am not sure how exactly this would help me to better carry out His work. So why do I have that feeling?
