To get rid of our cross is easy—die upon it.
It is not what we take up but what we give that makes us rich.
You cannot make it into heaven without bearing your cross on earth.
Joining the Red Cross will not take the place of bearing your cross.
Church members wear a cross; a Christian bears a cross.
Fellowship with Christ’s suffering is the qualification for sharing His dignity.
The crosses we fear are heavier than the crosses we bear.
They who receive scars for Christ will wear stars with Christ.
What we have given up for Christ is not forfeited but transferred.
The cross is easier to him who takes it up than to him who drags it along.
