Morning Prayer for Today (October 28, 2025): Tuesday – Taking Up Your Cross Daily
Every new morning brings an invitation from Jesus—a call to follow Him wholeheartedly. In Luke 9:23, He said, “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”
This is more than a verse; it’s a lifestyle. To follow Christ means surrendering our own desires, carrying our cross with faith, and walking in obedience every single day. True discipleship is found not in comfort but in commitment—choosing Jesus over self, every morning anew.
