ARE WE WILLING

"And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left."

Luke 23:33
King James Version

Jennie E. Hussey wrote a hymn that should challenge all of us to follow Jesus "LEAD ME TO CALVARY".

"King of my life, I crown Thee now, Thine shall the glory be; Lest I forget Thy thorn crowned brow, Lead me to Calvary.

Lest I forget Gethsemane, Lest I forget Thine agony; Lest I forget Thy love for me, Lead me to Calvary.

Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid, Tenderly mourned and wept; Angels in robes of light arrayed Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept.

Let me like Mary, through the gloom, Come with a gift to Thee; Show to me now the empty tomb, Lead me to Calvary.

May I be willing, Lord, to bear Daily my cross for Thee; Even Thy cup of grief to share, Thou hast borne all for me."

Yes, Jesus died for us on the cross so we can be saved and go to Heaven when we die. What are we doing for Him? Are we making Him happy or breaking His heart because of the things we say and the things we do? May God have mercy on us if we are hurting His beloved Son.

I love You so much, Jesus. Thank You for dying on the cross for me and for all You do for me every day, especially for never leaving me. I look forward to the happy joyous day when I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face.

Heavenly Father, please be with my beloved Pastor Davis. Please encourage him, strengthen him, protect him and let him know how much You love him and appreciate his service toYou. Thank You for your encouragement and protection for my Pastor. In Jesus' Name, I pray. Amen.
