When it comes to obeying God, there are really only two responses--"I will" or "I won't." It's tempting to say, "I will, but...", as some of Jesus' would-be disciples did, but that's a roundabout way of saying 'no' (Luke 9:59). Followers remain faithful to the Lord's plan whether doing so is easy or hard. Not only that, but they proclaim Him in both blessing and calamity, and go even when they don't like where He leads.

Followers pursue the Lord because they know that the reward is a deeper, more passionate relationship with Him. They are not just waiting to spend eternity with God in heaven. They realize that eternity begins now, as they accoumpany him on the righteous path He has set before them.
We Press On, in Jesus Name!
