Cheap Crosses

  Jesus said...If any man will
come after me,
let him deny
himself, and take up his cross
daily, and follow me.
 

(Luke 9:23)

Cross     One Good Friday a street vendor was selling crosses in front of a large cathedral. “Cheap crosses for sale!” cried the fellow as he endeavored to attract new customers. 
     The vendor’s statement held more meaning than he intended. Many people are looking for an easy religion that doesn’t require them to give up their worldly pleasures. They are seeking for a cheap cross. 
     The cross of Calvary was not cheap. Jesus gave up the pleasures of Heaven that He might come to earth and shed His blood for the sins of mankind. He commands us to daily take up a cross of self-denial that we might put Him first, others second, and ourselves last. 
     If we are willing to bear a cross today, some tomorrow we will wear a crown.
