Whoever wishes to save his life in this world will eventually lose it through death. But whoever loses his life in this world for His sake will find it. That is life with Him for all eternity. If you want to save your life, you will destroy it. But if you give up your life for Him, you will find it. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it.
Anyone who intends to come with Him has to let Him lead. You’re not in the driver’s seat; He is. Don’t run from suffering; embrace it. Follow Him and He will show you how. Self-help is no help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, His way, to finding yourself, your true self.
