“When Jesus talked about following Him, He didn’t sugarcoat it all. He didn’t say, ‘Follow Me, it’ll be great. You’re going to live an amazing life and I will pour my blessings on you financially.” Instead, it’s a much more realistic message, ‘Follow Me. It will probably be hard. People will probably persecute you and even hate you, but remember they hated Me first. I will be with you and give you strength to endure. Follow Me because I can give you eternal life.” — Sadie Robertson Huff
