Hard Truth

John 6: 66

⁶⁶ From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. ⁶⁷ Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”

Jesus spoke a hard truth, and many people followed Him no more.

It seems as though many people in the Christian church today, are looking for an easy run at things.

Make no mistake about it—following Jesus isn’t easy.

Following Jesus will cost most people something.

What is your faith walk costing you these days?

There is always a cost of following Jesus.

We look for hardship only during the season of Lent.

Following Jesus isn’t just for 46 days—it’s for a life time.

How are things going for you these days?
