Following Jesus


"There is no such thing as low-cost Christianity.  Following Jesus means swimming against the tide, renouncing evil and selfishness." 
~Pope Francis, 9/5/13 Tweet


“If any one comes to me without hating his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.  Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple....anyone of you who does not renounce all his possessions cannot be my disciple.”  ~Luke 14:26-27; 33

 
Keep Thou my all, O Lord, hide my life in Thine;
O let Thy sacred light over my pathway shine;
Kept by Thy tender care, gladly the cross I’ll bear;
Hear Thou and grant my prayer, hide my life in Thine.
~Frances Jane Crosby
