Christians often assume that to "take up our cross" means simply to carry a burden. When we run into a life trouble, we will say things like "oh, this is just my cross to bear". We basically shrug it off, totally missing the significance of the cross.
Ever consider that the cross is not meant to be a burden? It is meant to cause death.
The cross is meant to kill us!
It is an instrument of death!
Oh that wonderful cross!
