Luke 9: 61-62 ” Still another said, ‘ I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say good-by to my family.’ Jesus replied, ‘ No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.’ “

The man was making excuses for delaying Jesus’ call in his life…But how many times do we do the very same thing.  I’ll follow You Lord, but first I must do this, or I’ll follow you Lord, but this must happen first.  We want to feel in control, but sometimes God wants us to take that leap of faith without reservations, all the while demanding that our priorities be in perfect alignment with His.
