Do you ever not follow directions? Like deciding not to use the Maps app because, of course, we know the way. Or when you know the right thing to do, but don't do it because it just seems too hard or not worth the effort. There's this story in the Bible where some people reacted to Jesus that way. Jesus said something that really scared and confused a lot of His followers. 

But instead of listening, asking more questions, or trusting Jesus, they just . . . gave up and stopped following Him. Now, let's be honest. If you're following Jesus, it's not always going to be easy. But it will be worth it. So when following God's directions is difficult, or scary, or confusing, don't give up. Stay close to Jesus.

What is it about following God's direction that is typically most challenging for you? Why do you think that is?
