A Committed Heart and Soul

Jesus called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world yet forfeit their soul?

(Mark 8:34, 36 NIV)

Jesus, your purposes are generally the opposite of an earthbound here-and-now mindset. The verse makes it clear that it takes a committed heart and soul to follow You. Where I have become rusty in my attentiveness in following You, please refresh me with the breath of Your Spirit.
