Counting the cost is not always easy. Picking up your cross to follow Him can mean many things throughout your journey. It can mean pain, loss, sacrifice, being an outcast, suffering, transition, replacing familiar with unfamiliar, it will require great trust and dependency on God. (Hmmm..seems someone has modeled this for us before huh?) It will require great wisdom, discernment and prayer to be sure you're walking in HIS will and not your own. It will take great courage to follow His will for your life despite what the world or popular opinion may be. But the rewards of obedience to God are truly PRICELESS. BUT BE CAUTIOUS: Don't dare ever move without Him! However, don't stay when He says "follow me". How do you know the difference?? Learning to KNOW His voice is the key. You can't follow instructions if you don't know the teacher, never go to class and don't open the book! Seek and you'll find (Jeremiah 29:13). His sheep know His voice (John 10:27) Get in a church with other believers, learn about and get to know the greatest teacher, open His manual for LIFE, your Bible! Then you'll learn and KNOW His voice. The journey is full of peace when the trip has the ultimate leader ❤ What's He calling YOU to? Are you ready? Willing? Thankfully He takes care of the "able" part God speed my friends!
