"Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lost it and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it." Matthew 10:37-39
WOW! I read that this morning and it still hits me like a ton of bricks every time! How do we love anyone above our children? It seems almost impossible! But that is just the ultimate demonstration to me of truly letting go of everything in this world and loving our Father in heaven above all else. Easy? NO! Possible? YES!
