REFLECTION
In the Gospel reading for today, Jesus calls us to take our decision to follow Him seriously. He says we cannot be His follower if we don’t renounce everything and everyone else. As we ponder on this, we realise making Jesus our cornerstone can be challenging, daunting and solitary. But Jesus also promises that He is with us always. Today we reflect on all the ways we can continue to make Jesus our focus, our purpose for living and the centre of our thoughts and actions. In the words of the popular hymn: Though none go with me, I still will follow... the world behind me the cross before me, no turning back.
