Contemplation (verse 34)
The Lord calls us to deny ourselves—not to hate ourselves, but to put away selfish desires—so that we may carry the cross with Him. The cross is not only suffering, but also the victory of love, where we die to sin and live for God.
+ Fr Tadros Yacoub Malaty

Personal Reflection
What “self” do I need to deny so I can follow Jesus more closely?

Bible Knowledge Question
Who confessed Jesus as the Christ?

Prayer
Lord, teach me to embrace the cross with joy, knowing that through it You lead me to eternal life.
