    Take Up Your Cross Series

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 7, 2016
     | 13,297 views

    What are we projecting to other people about our service to the Lord if we are complaining about it instead of having fun while we are doing it? We get hung up when people in the world try to trip us up and slow down our walk to a crawl.
