Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple

Wig’s Word of God Today 11-3-2010

Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. Luke 14:27

Philippians 2:12-18, Psalm 27:1, 4, 13-14 & Luke 14:25-33
 
Paul’s message is clear: live your life loving God by fearing Him and not complaining. When you love your love of Christ, you live your life in a complete surrender to His Will knowing everything you experience is for His Glory celebrating each and every moment as a joy in Christ. God will come along and make sure you are challenged often. There will be times when life leads you down smooth highways and also bumpy roads. It’s how you react to the bumps that show your love of God. You can go fast and wreck or you can slow down and roll over each crest to see the other side clearly keeping your vision clear to obtain the goal of Christ’s Salvation. Stay focused and serious about sharing your love of Christ and God will bless you with graces of faith, hope and love.
 
God wants us to be confident in Him. Amen. By trusting in His Plan for you, His Light of Salvation will illuminate your very existence and you too shall dwell in the House of the Lord forever and ever. Christ reminds us we must follow Him without hating anyone allowing our love to shine in our soul for all to see. People will sometimes ask me if I’m a Preacher or a Priest because I know my eyes shine with a love of God in all that I do. By my actions more than my words are what draws people to me. There is a need to denounce material things when you pick up your Cross and follow Jesus. Even your family must come second when becoming a disciple of Christ Jesus. By loving your love of Christ you understand God’s Plan for you and you act upon it with confidence in the Lord allowing your family to know you are safe in your practice, prayer and proclamation of Christ Jesus.
 
And so we pray: My Lord and My God, I pray today to always have strength to carry Your Son’s Cross when it is heavy and when it is light. Make me unafraid to lift His Cross high in the air to be a beacon for people to be drawn to. Grant me this prayer through our Lord Jesus Christ Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God forever and ever. Amen.
 
God Bless,
Cruz-Wig
Romans 8:28
 
Praising the Holy Crown
 
Be obedient to His Call
Amongst friends or foes
Trembling in His love
Proving His Salvation shows
 
All is accomplished
Without fear or grumbling
Surrender complete
Living life very humbling
 
Be blameless in Him
No shame to show
God’s Plan complete
His Salvation to know
 
A Light of Salvation
Afraid of nothing to be
His bounty to feel
His courage to see
 
A Disciple in love
No hate dragging you down
Carrying your Cross
Praising the Holy Crown

About Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins

My name is Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins. I first recognize Christ as my Savior in all things. I am married to my best friend and Soul-Mate in Christ, Antonia Cruz-Wiggins. I am a University of Florida graduate of Public Relations, a US Navy Veteran and a Montessori Elementary School Teacher. I love life and God's help of living it! I follow the Light of Christ in everything I do! I love writing poetry about the Lord and I create a new poem from each Scripture I discern in my daily mediations. You can almost follow the poem by looking at the readings for each day. I started sharing this small yet personal scripture study four years ago when one day I was reading the bible and the Holy Spirit moved me to share the verse with a group of about 40 Christian Men in my Emmaus Ministry who get together weekly to celebrate the Lord and talk about His Truth. Since then the number of people I share my study with has grown to over 650. I enjoy an open loving dialog about anything I write and I have strived to write what I know the Lord wants me to share steering clear of offending anyone’s spiritual beliefs because I share my work with people I meet in public when I strike up a conversation about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It took almost 2 years to begin writing what the Holy Spirit leads me to say. I believe that all Christians must unite as One Body of Christ’s Love to accomplish the joy of living with love, honor and respect. I reach out to Humanity to share His Salvation be it Baptist, Catholic, Protestant, Episcopal or any other religion or belief. I seek to mirror His Compassion, His Simpleness, His Charity and His Love. While I am Catholic, I believe we must all unite in the Lord to become One Body in Christ to bring our children back to The Church. I am humbled to share my study with you. Please feel free to comment any time. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is my Joy because I am a Disciple of His Truth. I am honored to share my Bible study with anyone you may recommend. As always, I remain, Yours in Christ, Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins
