Matthew 8:18-22:
In today’s Gospel, we hear the same message from Matthew about discipleship as we heard from Luke. The demands of discipleship are radical and must be held above all else. The Jewish people found this difficult. Family obligation was a priority.
Let us remember that putting God first does not take away from our obligation to family. Rather it serves our care for others, especially our families.
