Reflections
This
Week's
Reflection
Luke
14:25-33
Those
that do not renounce their possessions
cannot be my
disciple.
Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem
when he stops to give this no-nonsense
talk to a great crowd of people who want
to follow him. Like any rabbi of his time,
Jesus uses exaggeration to command
attention. He wants to get the point
across that he must be at the center of
his followers’ lives. Jesus insists
that no one can be his disciple who does
not consider him before family or self.
The disciple who thinks he or she can
serve Jesus part-time is foolish. She is
like a builder who has no idea how much it
will cost to complete a tower. He like a
king who goes to battle with no idea how
many troops his enemy has. The disciple
must be willing to renounce or give up
everything out of love for Christ.
1.) Do you choose Jesus each day in
your life? Why or why not? How? How are
you learning more about Jesus so that you
can choose to follow him?
2.) How does your choice of
following Jesus make life better for
others in your family and among your
friends? What are your responsibilities in
life? How do you choose to carry them
out?
