And how much did that cost? .... it was priceless.
Who paid it? .... Jesus did. By His death, and He did it with much joy.
Oh, to follow in His footsteps and deny myself daily, as He did with His life. For you. For me. Everything comes back to this simple truth; that this life is not my own.
Welcome to my world.
Luke 9:23
"23 Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. 24 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it. 25 What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self ? 26 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels."
