Matthew 16:25
These words do not come from a person devoid of the knowledge of the joys of this life. Jesus is no mad-man. He was, and is, well aware of the human condition. He understands the temptation to live it up in the here and now. But, he shows us a far better way. The Great God who made us the beings that we are, and gifted us with this wonderful thing called life, has a bigger plan. Losing this life to gain the one to come is infinitely worth it.
