Several times in my life I chose to build things like house projects, car projects, etc. Every time, I didn’t pay any attention to what the projects would cost and ended up in a bad situation that usually led to the project not being completed. In the end, it made it look to others like I wasn’t paying attention or was lost. Other times I’ve just abandoned it or quit altogether. In these verses Jesus teaches us about the cost of being a disciple. As living out a Christ-like life also means we face troubles that may come with a steep cost. Following Christ does not promise a trouble-free life.  When we choose to be a disciple, we have to be aware of that, and remember that because of Jesus’ love for us, the price has already been paid in full.       

Have you ever abandoned your intimate relationship with Jesus? 

Have you been willing to disregard the cost it takes to be a disciple of Jesus?
