BEAST OF BURDEN
"Then he said to them all,
"If you want to become my followers,
let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For those who want to save their life will lose it,
and those who lose their life for my sake will save it.
What does it profit them if they gain the whole world,
but lose or forfeit themselves?"
Luke 9:22-25
THE PARADOX OF THE CROSS...
The cross is a burden and
the cross takes up my burden.
When I follow the cross ..
it strengthens me but
it also enslaves me.
I am overwhelmed
captivate
lured
ensnared
by its charism of LOVE.
