Easy paths are bigger temptations to Christians than evil paths.

Or they tin live on every bit huge every bit selecting a family-friendly career when you lot know God called your trouble solid unit of measurement to something to a greater extent than difficult.*

"Whoever does non accept upwardly their cross as well as follow me is non worthy of me. Whoever finds their life volition lose it, as well as whoever loses their life for my sake volition discovery it."
