Before Humility climbed up a Sycamore tree, was received into his home, and changed Zaccheus’ life, Pride had to step down and get out of the way.

estoy de la cruz

“Show me how to love like You.”, a young man prays. “Are you sure?”, Christ whispers. “With all my heart, Lord. Well..with all that’s left of it.”, he replies. “My love never seems to be enough for anyone…”, the young man adds. “I feel you.” his Maker replies. “You do?” the man whispers. “More than you can imagine.” the Son replies with a soft smile.

“I have to tell you, there won’t be anything left of that heart of yours when I show you how. The only way I can show you how is when you surrender to me all of your heart and receive mine in its place.” He said with a soft voice. “but if I give you all of my heart, won’t it kill me?” the young man, replied with fear in his voice.

“Yes, It will.” He replied.

“won’t it kill You,too.” the young man asked.

“It already did…”

“but, now, you have nothing to fear because when I did, I conquered death and the Spirit that brought me back to Life will bring you back too.  you have to believe, surrender, and let my heart take over.”

“Okay… I surrender.”

the young man lowers his head, folds his fingers together, closes his eyes and let his heart beat its last.

(disclaimer: this is a fictional conversation)

 * estoy de la cruz - I am of the cross.

*matthew 16:24-25- “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.  For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.”

Splinter:

“I am proud of you, my sons. Tonight you have learned the final and greatest truth of the Ninja: that ultimate mastering comes not from the body, but from the mind. Together, there is nothing your four minds cannot accomplish. Help each other, draw upon one another, and always remember the power that binds you. The same is what brought me here tonight, that which I gladly return with my final words: I love you all, my sons. “

Judas betrayed once but hung himself. Peter betrayed thrice, came back and became part of His(story). Judas and Peter had a choice, Peter chose right.
