The first commandment is to love the Lord you God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
And the second is to love your neighbor as yourself.
(Mark 12)
Luke 14:26
If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.
Jesus is calling us to be willing to be willing to give up everything to follow Him. Look at the lives of the disciples. Most of them left their family's, devoted their lives to His service, and at the end, gave up their lives. God may not ask us to give up these things, or He may, but are we willing ?
