“He who does not take his cross and
follow after Me is not worthy of Me.”
-MATTHEW 10:38
It
is unfortunate that after many years of service the Lord still has to
call us back to the Cross, yet this is precisely where we should have
begun. Although we ought to encourage people to come as they are and
trust the Lord for salvation, we must also teach them that they must
count the cost and take up the Cross: else they are not worthy of Jesus!
God cannot fill us until He empties us. The Cross is where we are
poured out that He may pour
in.
