A teacher of the Law came to him. “Teacher,” he said, “I am ready to go with you wherever you go.” Jesus answered him, “Foxes have holes, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lie down and rest.” Another man, who was a disciple, said, “Sir, first let me go back and bury my father.” “Follow me,” Jesus answered, “and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Matthew 8:19-22 GNBDK
Reflection:
While we all enjoy the feel good factor of religion and piety, we ought to understand that Christianity is much more than that. For Christ came into the world to take up the cross, and if we want to be his true disciples, then Jesus has to be our priority at all times and in every circumstance.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace and understanding to his ways. Like Jesus may you humbly submit to the Father's will as you carry your cross and may his Holy Spirit be your comforter and guide. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
