Real Discipleship

We are called to follow Jesus not to just pray. We are called to give it all away to follow Him.

You cannot come with me unless you love me more than you love your own life. Luke 14:26

You cannot be my disciple unless you give away everything you own. Luke 14:33

Love God supremely. Lord of our lives. Love Him more than you love your family or your self. Anything keeping you from God needs to be put away.

Take your cross and follow Him. Be a dead man walking. Dead to anything that would distract you from God. 

You must take up your cross each day and follow me. Luke 9:23

I have died, but Christ lives in me. Gal 2:20

I will never brag about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Gal 6:14

We have killed our selfish feelings and desires. Gal 5:24

Live in the light of eternity. Rely totally in His ability. You are only capable through Him. Finish what you start. Start a project and finish. Christ calls you to a task and you are to do that task until you are finished. Doesn't matter how well you start if you don't finish.

I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize. Phil 3:12

Surrender to the strong King.

Don't brag about tomorrow! Each day brings its own surprises. Prov 27:1

You can not predict tomorrow. You are not a master of your faith. We are all hopeless. Make a commitment to be who He called you to be.

Stay pure.
