The Cost of Following Jesus

Matthew 8

18 Now Jesus, when He saw the great throngs around Him, gave orders to cross to the other side [of the lake]. 19 And a scribe came up and said to Him, Master, I will accompany You wherever You go. 20 And Jesus replied to him, Foxes have holes and the birds of the air have lodging places, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head. 21 Another of the disciples said to Him, Lord, let me first go and bury [ 1 care for till death] my father. 22 But Jesus said to him, Follow Me, and leave the dead [ 2 in sin] to bury their own dead.
