"I am the Carpenter with nails in My Hand.
I am the Cross-bearer with scars on My Back.
I am the Burden-carrier weighed down by your woes.
I walk beside you in all things - I never let go of your hand or cease to carry your load.
If you would walk with Me you would have peace.
Dry your tears.. they are not for profit.
What will profit your soul is this - to stand with Me in My trials as I stand with you in yours.
To stand with Me means this..to gaze upon Me with the eyes of your soul.
I am your heart's desire and source of contentment.
It is I, Who can fill you and make you clean and grant you joy.
The things of the world satisfy partially but not fully, for they are mere creations of Mine; but in giving you Myself I give you all that I am."

Oh Trish...to take up our Cross...it really is His Cross. We are living this life because of that Cross that He took so willingly and effortlessly. Knowing the pain and suffering He would endure.
ReplyDeleteOh, to be worthy of that Cross...
