Jesus talks about the cross
Pick it up daily and follow me
A young man had just hiked across a long,
barren stretch of land.
Reporters asked what he found hardest about
it. Was is the loneliness?” “No,” he replied.
Was it the hot sun beating down on you?” No,”
he replied.
Was it the dangerous nights by the roadside?”
“No,” he replied.
“Well, then, what was it?”
“The sand in my shoes”, he said.
That's often the case in everyday life, also.
It’s not always the big things that get us down; more often, it’s the tiny
irritations.
