the cross roomThe young man was at the end of his rope. Seeing no way out, he dropped to his knees in prayer.
"
Lord, I can't go on," he said. "
I have too heavy a cross to bear."
The Lord replied, "
My son, if you can't bear it's weight, just place your cross inside this room. Then open another door and pick any cross you wish."
The man was filled with relief. "
Thank you, Lord," he sighed, and did as he was told.
As he looked around the room he saw many different crosses; some so large the tops were not visible. Then he spotted a tiny cross leaning against a far wall.
"
I'd like that one, Lord," he whispered.
And the Lord replied, "
My son, that's the cross you brought in."
no cross is heavy, cos Jesus' was the heaviest -
it carried the whole worldjust sometimes i feel my whole world's caving in, but never realised that my world was so small.
my cross is just a burden, but not
the cross i should be carrying.
dear God, i need a heavier cross. 0 comments
