We can show our gratitude for all that Christ does for us by acknowledging his ownership of us and gladly responding to his invitation: “If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake day after day and follow me continually. ”
(‏ غلاطية ٣ :‏ ١٣ ؛‏ ٤ :‏ ٥ ؛‏ ٢ بطرس ٢ :‏ ١‏ )‏ ويمكننا اظهار شكرنا على كل ما يفعله المسيح من اجلنا اذ نعترف بأنه مالكنا ونلبِّي بفرح دعوته :‏ « إن اراد احد ان يأتي ورائي ،‏ فلينكر نفسه كليا ويحمل خشبة آلامه كل يوم ويتبعني على الدوام » .‏
