The Cost of Following Jesus

Luke 9:57-62

57 As they were walking along the road, a man said to him, "I will
follow you wherever you go."
58 Jesus replied, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests,
but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."
59 He said to another man, "Follow me." But the man replied,
"Lord, first let me go and bury my father."
60 Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you
go and proclaim the kingdom of God."
61 Still another said, "I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back
and say good bye to my family."
62 Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks
back is fit for service in the kingdom of God."


I'm have counted the cost and I wouldn't change any of it.
The cost is nothing in comparison to the riches that I have received in Christ.
It's totally worth it.
