It not always easy but it’s rather simple.
Mark Twain once said,
“I am not troubled by the things in the Bible which I do not understand, but I am troubled by those things which I do understand and which I find very difficult to measure up to.”
Mark Twain
Twain was an interesting character.
One one hand following Jesus is hard as we ‘carry our crosses’ and hated by the world. On the other hand, Jesus said:
“For My yoke is easy
and My burden is light.”
Jesus, Matthew 11:30
So we fully feel the following Christ contains the paradox of life.
