The experience of Simon of Cyrenia presents us with one of the most remarkable examples and striking illustrations of the real significance and meaning of Christian living. Simon becomes a part of the Calvary experience of Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord. The Christian life is a process of cross bearing. It is taking up the burden and carrying that burden in fidelity to Jesus Christ. There is a sense that every dedicated disciple is compelled and forced to follow Jesus Christ. You won’t last as a disciple unless the driving force of your discipleship is the love of Jesus Christ for you.
