Jesus must be first love!

Jesus made it very clear, that a true follower of His will love Him above all else and there is a heavy cost in following Him. Read here:

Luke 14:25-27 Now great multitudes went with Him. And He turned and said to them, 26 “If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. 27 And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.

Do you love Jesus so much more than anyone else that your love for them is like hate? Thats what Jesus is calling us too here. Are you willing to pay the cost of following Him no matter what it is? Death, prison, lack of popularity, lack of material things, going where ever He says, ect.? 

So again we must ask ourselves...Is Jesus our first love?
