Jesus said to pick up your cross and follow me we are to do the works of christ for we are his body what have you done today for him?
do you feel like you can do more?
Have you told anyone of his Love for them?
Are you reaching out to lost souls to welcome them to Jesus or are you scaring them away?

I don't think we do enough in this day and age.I like to get on Yahoo R&S catregory to answer questions.I think I am able to talk about Jesus to others without scaring them away. I do not judge, I do not speak of hellfire and damnation. and I can listen to someone elses' point of view.

You ask good questions like I liked to ask from the pulpit. I am disabled now, see people on occasion, and have learned that sometimes the cross I need to pick up is simply believing Jesus picked up his for me. The reaching out, loving, doing more has to begin with me. Anyone, we are seeeing, can throw their life away for a cause. For Christians, living their life as Christ has given it to them can be the heaviest cross.

Great.
The command of Love 2000 years ago did not cover Muslims, and thousands of other ideologies and religious denominations. How can we bring back all of them to the Shelter of the One True God now?

I taught Wed. night Bible study, where my curriculum is steeped in the reason for your faith.
It seems some like to hear the academics of the Word, the application of the Word, but none of the apologetics, according to 1Peter3:15,16.
Faith/Reason. Too much faith, you're fall for every Benny Hinn and Jessie Duplantis in the valley. Too much reason, then it become dry and dusty, and not worthy of study. Balance it, like a tight rope: too much slack, you fall. Too tight, you fall.

What can I do for Him? All my righteousness is as filthy rags compared to what He has done for me. I cannot even begin to impress Him or give Him the Praise that He is due. I continue to offer my small worship and my small works because it is all I have to give. But my desire is to give far more than I have to the One my heart loves.

I wish I had.
How can I possibly expect God to pull me out of my despair now, if I help nobody else out of theirs???
Yet He gives me strength to go through another day. Each one is hard, especially now, but I go through them.
Ignore the low rating for your question. It's a good one.

I cannot tell you that. I think the Lord wanted us to keep that private. I do believe He said to not boast. .. . so I won't.
But I do think your question is a good reminder to all. Even those who think they've done much. Thank you and God Bless.

Your last question/statement needs to be repeted constantly and all of our hearts need to meditate on it daily.
To answer your primary question. I feed the hungry, clothed the naked and offered rest to the weary. I would have shelterd the homeless but as one myself I do not have that to give.

I told at least 3 people that he doesn't exist and showed someon else evidence that epilepsy can cause religious euphoria. Is that "carrying the cross"?
