Mankind wants glory. We want health. We want wealth. We want happiness. We want all our felt needs met, all our little human itches scratched. We want a painless life. We want the crown without the cross. We want the gain without the pain. We want the words of Christ’s salvation to be easy.

There is no testimony without a test.
True but to qualify for the crown, we have to pick up our crosses and follow Him. No shortcuts allowed. I see that now.

it can be so true. we want comfort and then a crown…that’s not the order of things, tho. thx for sharing 🙂
