Obedience as a Sign of Conversion

Scripture: Matthew 16:24
"Then Jesus said to his disciples, 'Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.'"

Reflection:
True conversion leads to a life of obedience and surrender to Jesus. Following Him means denying ourselves and aligning our will with His. Reflect on areas of your life where you struggle to obey. What steps can you take to follow Jesus more closely?

Prayer:
Lord Jesus, I want to follow You wholeheartedly. Help me to deny myself and take up my cross daily. Give me the strength to obey Your commands and to live a life that reflects Your love. Amen.

Action:
Choose one command of Jesus that you find challenging. Make a conscious effort to obey it today, asking for the Holy Spirit's help.
