Sunday 4th September 2022 – The Cost of being a Disciple Read: Luke 14:25 – 33
Jesus wanted people to think carefully before becoming a disciple – he knew it would not be an easy task and he wanted people to know what they would be expected to give up. Jesus wanted the disciples to put God first, not to constantly have excuses but be able and willing to learn and serve no matter what – even if it meant giving up everything. Jesus still wants us to put him first today and to be prepared to follow him.

Who are Jesus disciples? What was he expecting them to do? Why did Jesus want his disciples to
think carefully about following him? How would you feel if Jesus said these things to you?

Pray: Dear God, help us put Jesus first. Amen
Father in heaven watch over our loved ones.
Keep them by your side.
May they be safe and peaceful, in you may they abide.
Give wisdom to the doctors and nurses too we pray,
renew their strength and bless them for the work they do each day. Send healing and restoration and let them feel your love.
May your Holy Spirit give them rest as gentle as a dove. Amen (Taken from Praying Together)
