Tuesday: Predictions – Take Up Your Cross
Read Luke 9:18-27, 18:31-34

Prayer: Father, your Son knew what was coming, yet he willingly gave himself up for me.  He was rejected, mocked, shamefully treated, spit upon, flogged, and killed for my sins.  Let me give myself for him.  Help me deny myself – stop living for myself, and take up my cross – be willing to suffer for Christ, and follow him wherever he leads.  Amen.

Reflect/Discuss: What are some practical daily examples of what it might look like to deny yourself for Christ?

Praise: Sing “Am I A Soldier of the Cross”
