We are followers, all of us! The question is, who are we following and why? These words from Jesus in Luke Chapter 9 are probably the most difficult and hardest for believers to follow. The fact remains we are called follow Him. However, we cannot follow Jesus in our own strength we need the Holy Spirit. Remember Jesus words in John 14:15. If you love me, you will obey my commandments. In what ways are you laying aside hindrances described in Hebrews 12 to follow Jesus? Luke Chapter 9 57 As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.” 58 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” 59 To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” 60 And Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.” 61 Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” 62 Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
