The Cost of Following Jesus
Luke 9:57-62
Luke 9:57-62
57As 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."
59He 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 goodbye 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."

Mother's day
Mother's day is coming up. This is a day to celebrate the women who have given up so much to make sure we had what we needed and sometimes what we wanted. They believed in us even when we did not believe in ourselves. They encouraged us, even when we did not want to be. They pushed us to be the best even when we pushed back. And when we have thought that we have done something so wrong that there was no possible way for forgiveness, our mothers held out their hands and said I love you and I will always love you no matter what.
We are specially lucky that we have mothers who are children of God. Who knows God's love and have passed that on to us. And since most of us are now moms, we now are passing that on to our children.

Teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it. ~ Proverbs 22:6
