520			_aOur Lord's words "whoever wishes to be My follower must deny his very self, take up his cross each day and follow My steps" (Luke 9:23) were spoken for people of all times and localities.

They are a challenge to modern people - surrounded by the comforts and conveniences of modern inventions - who take all these things for granted and, becoming immersed in the material, often forget their eternal destiny.
