The Law of Daily Christian Life
Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.


If we mean to be disciples of Christ indeed, we shall have every day —

1. Something to put away for Christ's sake — "Let him deny himself."

2. Something to take up and bear for Christ — "Take up his cross."

3. Something actively to do for Christ's sake — "And follow Me"

(R. Tuck, B A)
