Lord, help us to forgive as You want us to forgive. To love as You want us to love. Help us to speak the truth as You spoke the truth. Help us really be Your disciples, Your followers. It's not all harmony, happiness, and blessings, they may or may not come. It's standing for truth and love at the same time, fighting against a culture that laughs at Christ and pays lip service to His commandments. Not the commandments of men and the traditions of the Church, but help us to really follow Jesus' words. Those are the ones who really love Him. Those who are willing to stand up for love and truth even to their own hurt. Come and die for Jesus. Where are the true followers of Christ today? Jesus said, Pick up your cross and come and follow Me. Who are we really following? God, or ourselves, or the culture around us. Jesus said, he that loves the world is the enemy of God. Do we love God above the gods of this world? Or have the gods of this world become our God? Who will come and die with me for Jesus? Who will deny himself and follow Jesus today?
