Prayer
Lord Jesus,
when the cross feels
heavy, give us the grace to
keep walking with you.
Teach us to trust you in our
struggles, to find strength in
your presence, and to remain
faithful to your way.
May our crosses draw us
closer to you and lead
us to the joy of new life.
Amen.
Jesus invites us to take up our cross and follow him
Gospel Matthew 16:21-27
Following Jesus is not always easy. Faith does not promise us a life without difficulties, but it teaches us how to walk through those difficulties with Christ. Each of us carries a cross in some form - our responsibilities, sacrifices, struggles, disappointments and even the challenges of loving others.
The cross reminds us that discipleship requires more than words. It calls for trust, sacrifice and perseverance. Yet we do not carry our crosses alone. Christ walks with us.
May we have the courage to embrace our crosses, the faith to trust God in difficult moments, and the grace to keep following Jesus.
