DENY SELF AND LET GOD BLESS
Peter expressed concern that they had left everything to follow
Jesus and Jesus responded "ANYONE WHO GIVES UP HIS
HOME, BROTHERS, SISTERS, FATHER, MOTHER, WIFE,
CHILDREN, OR PROPERTY, TO FOLLOW ME, SHALL
RECEIVE A HUNDRED TIMES AS MUCH IN RETURN"
[Mt 19:29 TL]{Mk 10:30}{Lk 18:29}. Yes Jesus encourages us to
"DENY" [Lk 9:23] ourselves and put what God wants ahead of
everything including family and possessions. However we can be
blessed with family and possessions when we are blessed by God
for following Jesus. Do you give up a lot to follow Jesus?
