The Cost of Following Jesus (MAT 8:18-22)

[8:18] Now when Jesus saw a crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side.

[8:19] And a scribe came up and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”

[8:20] And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”

[8:21] Another of the disciples said to him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

[8:22] And Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”
