Love demands everything. Not only carrying the cross — dying on it. We do hard things, but not for the sake of doing hard things.

That None Would Be Lost
Can you imagine how it feels for a parent when their child dies? A father and a mother don’t want to lose any of their children, and this is an icon of understanding how God doesn’t want any of his children to be lost—how passionate God is about our salvation.
