Luke 14:34 - Additional Comments

More (vss 26-35) on our commitment to Jesus. As his disciple, our life must have a good flavor to others - we enrich those around us for Jesus. How do they view you and your life? Do they consider enriched because of you? This is what Jesus wants. (See 'ministry ideas.doc'.) And if your life is not like this for Him, it's not even worth dung for fertilizer (vs 25). Jesus has high standards for being His disciple!
