The most important moment in your spiritual life this week won't happen on Sunday morning. It'll happen on some random Tuesday when nobody's watching and you're too tired to care.

Jesus said it clearly in Luke 9:23 - we must take up our cross DAILY and follow Him. Not once. Not occasionally. Daily. Most of your Christian life isn't lived in big, dramatic moments. It's lived in ordinary ones - in hundreds of small decisions nobody else sees.

Discipleship isn't a one-time decision; it's a daily commitment. Every morning you choose: Will I live for myself today, or will I live for Jesus? Will I surrender my will to His? The paradox is beautiful - you find real life by losing it. You save your life by giving it away.
