Excuses!

We make excuses for almost everything! Success or progress comes when we stop making excuses and start finding solutions.

We read this story today at our family devotion.

“As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.” 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.”

To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” And Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”

Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.””
‭‭Luke‬ ‭9:57-62‬ ‭ESV‬‬

What are my excuses for not making disciples? What are yours?
