Costless Christianity

January 8, 2015 by natalie

Living for Jesus-
what does that mean?
Can’t I still play
on my basketball team?

Living for Jesus-
how do I know?
Can’t I still watch
my favorite show?

Living for Jesus-
how will it end?
Can’t I still keep
my very best friend?

Living for Jesus-
will it be fair?
Can’t I still dress
with cute clothes and hair?

Living for Jesus-
what will I find?
Can’t I still own
what’s rightfully mine?

Living for Jesus-
how is it done?
Can’t I still have
a life that is fun?

Living for Jesus-
what is the key?
Can’t I be blessed
while living for me?

The Cost of Discipleship According to Jesus
“So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.” (Luke 14:33)

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.” (Matthew 13:45-46)

How do we convey to our children the surpassing worth of Jesus Christ compared to anything and everything in this world? How do we lead them to the truth that if they will lose their life for the sake of the gospel, then – and only then – they will truly find it?
