The Road to the Cross
The road to the cross must have been a difficult one for Jesus. He knew all the details of the pain and torture He would endure and yet He kept true to God's mission and kept walking this difficult road. As His last days in Jerusalem loomed large Jesus kept his focus on dying for the sins of humanity. His determination and love for mankind should serve as a model for the Christian.
If we choose to follow Jesus it is a road to the cross for all of us. Jesus said those who follow Him should take up their own cross and follow Him. Dying to our own selfish interests is a challenge for everyone. Yet we too, like Jesus, must keep our focus on God's mission and keep walking with Him on the Road to the cross!
