If only you were willing to follow My plan, not yours. Lay down your desires, your ego, your life. Surrender all, take up My Cross and follow Me. This life is not about you. It’s about My purposes and My Plan for you. You will never succeed or be fulfilled until you lay it all down get over yourself and follow Me.

And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me. Luke 9:23
