Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.

Matthew 16:24 (NLT)

Inhale
I choose to follow the ways of my Lord and Savior

Exhale
As a response to His great love for me

Dear Jesus,

Thank you for your unending love.
Help me to walk away from my selfish desires and to follow your ways.
Remind me that your way is the best way.
Grant me wisdom to see when I am no longer walking close with you.
I want to grow closer to you so that I can be more like you.

Amen.
