Sunday Morning Prayer (The Cross)

Luke 9:22-24 (King James Version)
Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day. And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

Father God in the name of Jesus we come to you today as we take up our cross today in Jesus. WE come to you LORD Jesus to confess our faults, sins, inequities, and transgressions today and ask for your forgiveness as we selfishly seek our own pleasure forgetting our cross to bear.
