Jesus has just predicted his suffering and death for the first time. This did not bode well with Peter and Jesus rebukes him. Now Jesus is telling his disciples that following him connects their fate to his. They must let go of themselves and let God guide them. Taking up their cross will lead them to eternal happiness.
“Let go and let God,” they say. That’s often easier said than done. St. Clare, like your friend, Francis, you were able to let go and follow. Pray for us that we may do the same.
