Jesus Has Given Us All Things, and Desires to Be All to Us ㅡ
“He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.”
(Matthew 10:37, 38)
Christ demands all.
And when you think that the way is too strait, that there is too much self-denial in this narrow path;
when you say, How hard to give up all, ask yourselves the question, What did Christ give up for me?
This question puts anything that we may call self-denial in the shade.
Behold Him in the garden, sweating great drops of blood.
A solitary angel is sent from heaven to strengthen the Son of God.
Follow Him on His way to the judgment hall, while He is derided, mocked, and insulted by that infuriated mob.
Behold Him clothed in that old purple kingly robe. Hear the coarse jest and cruel mocking.
See them place upon that noble brow the crown of thorns, and then smite Him with a reed, causing the thorns to penetrate His temples, and the blood to flow from that holy brow.
Hear that murderous throng eagerly crying for the blood of the Son of God.
He is delivered into their hands, and they lead the noble sufferer away, pale, weak, and fainting, to His crucifixion.
He is stretched upon the wooden cross, and the nails are driven through His tender hands and feet.
Behold Him hanging upon the cross those dreadful hours of agony until the angels veil their faces from the horrid scene, and the sun hides its light, refusing to behold.
Think of these things, and then ask, Is the way too strait? No, no.
(Testimonies for the Church Volume 1 240.2)
