obedience: the hard road

Obedience is hard for me...
my self cringes at the call... don't do it!

But the easy way out leads to destruction...
a life killing road...

So today I choose a hard road...
obedience...

I choose the self-killing road of obedience that I might find life...

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it,

but whoever loses his life for me and for the gospel will save it.

Mark 8:35
