Role Models : Perpetua and Felicitas - Luke 14:25-33

Unfortunately in this world, there is much pressure when it comes to our faith. We don't often like to be uncomfortable, or under pressure. We want to keep comforts close at hand. We want to live with our luxuries and things that we "need". We don't want to give up that which we like to have. Jesus gave up all that he had, that he might have you. He descended from heaven, became a human, was humiliated as a true man, suffered, died, was buried, all that you may have life, through his sacrifice and resurrection. Jesus gave it all, that we might have all that we truly need. In turn, we also can give up some small comforts, that others may hear about and know these promises of true life in Jesus.
