This is most of us, in our day to day lives don't want to do anything that we will have to work hard for. Especially if it doesn't bring us any material reward. God has not become our priority because it is too difficult for us to live according to the way He wants us to live.
St. Paul says that when we were baptized into Christ, we were also baptized into His suffering. And that we must believe that we have died to sin and that we are living for God. In the Gospel Jesus says that whoever doesn't reject his own life for Christ is not worthy of Him.
Jesus gave up His life and His Divinity for us.
How far are we willing to go, for Jesus?
Let us pray for strength. That on this earth, as we live as pilgrims who will return home someday, that we will be able to give up ourselves and put God on the top of our list.
