WHAT IS THE CROSS I BEAR?

By Frank E. Henrich Dec. 1, 1978

God clothes His light in earthen vessels. It is these earthen vessels that men and women of worldly interests attack, not God's light. How is this? Worldly people attack the person saying he is not intelligent, stupid and simple to believe in what he cannot see. They need an excuse for not becoming like you. For they know that for them to become like you they will have to eliminate the passion of their habitual sin.
As a result they are choosing evil because of fear of loss of pride and acceptance - - fear that others might say they are stupid, etc - - one fears, another fears, etc. - - is how the system functions. So they attack verbally the one thing they can attack. The earthen vessel (you and I) that holds the Light of Jesus Christ - - the key to heaven, - - a new nature filled with love and peace - - only given to us by declaring Jesus our Savior is our-light. It is better they attack us than God. It is part of the cross we bear. We carry the Light of Jesus Christ forward into darkness (evil) daily depending on faith and trust in Jesus Christ. The crosses we bear are the performing of little acts day by day, moment by moment that glorify You my God regardless of what can mankind thinks. So wonder no more why some hate you but let your light shine. So wonder no more why some hate you and let your light shine. Read Matthew 16:24-27 and Galatians 2:20.
