“For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.”
Matthew 16: 24-26
Reflecting on our past struggles, we remember how Jesus helped us through them. We realise that he never abandons us. Even when our burdens felt too heavy and we were ready to give up, he was with us every step of the way. We are never truly alone as Jesus is always there, helping us carry our crosses.
Our purpose is not just about living in the present, but about living a life that leads to eternity with God. As we bear our crosses today, let us ask God to give us His grace, love, and hope to bear them alongside Jesus to the very end.
How do we prepare ourselves for eternal life? Do we open our hearts and allow Jesus to accompany us on this journey to the end of time?
