Deny Yourself Glass Coaster

This very well known passage from Luke 9:23 tells of Jesus' words when he was not only calling His disciples to follow Him, but also what they were about to go through--having to deny themselves--all of themselves, to follow Him. This picture I took while at the beach reminded me of those passages, and it was only fitting that Luke 9:23 would be on such a beautiful background of the shoreline, reminding us of the days Jesus spent teaching in Galilee. The colors of different shades of blues and greens both in the font colors and the picture, mixed with the white foamy water makes for a beautiful decorative scene that also is so calming and inviting.
