The Cost of Discipleship
In a Christian classic book, The Cost of Discipleship, Dietrich Bonhoeffer states of believers: "they simply bear the suffering which comes their way as they try to follow Jesus Christ, and bear it for his sake. Sorrow cannot tire them or wear them down, it cannot embitter them or cause them to break down under the strain; far from it, for they bear their sorrow in the strength of him who bears them up, who bore the whole suffering of the world on the cross."
Christian, does this describe you today? Are you letting Christ bear you up? I pray you will. Be strong in the Lord!
