Nearly anyone who accomplished something great in their life had a single-minded devotion. When you think about your favourite athlete, musician, influencer, or expert in your field of interest, all of them were relentless in their focus to make a difference in this world. Michael Jordan is renowned for his tenacity on and off the basketball court. Steve Jobs was committed to making a dent in the universe. Nothing would stop Jesus from completing the world’s greatest rescue mission, which culminated on a hill outside Jerusalem. In observing the life of Jesus, we are reminded this isn’t just a fascinating story, but a story we are called into, as it tells us in Luke 9:23-24 “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.”
