Today’s Reading: Matthew 16:21–28
(EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)
“Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.”
(Matthew 16:24)
This week’s EFKS theme:
The Gospel of Matthew: Voices of Holy Week — From Cheering Crowd to Lone Prayer
A Thought for Today
Jesus moves forward knowing what lies ahead.
What This Means for Us Today
He speaks openly about suffering and the cross. The path is not accidental. It is chosen obedience.
Following Christ may lead through difficulty before it leads to glory.
Carry This With You
Walk faithfully, even when the road feels heavy.
A Simple Prayer
Lord, give me courage to follow You.
Strengthen my trust in Your purpose.
Amen.
Today’s Invitation
Consider one area where obedience feels costly.
Place it before God.
