"Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple. And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple."
LUKE 14:25-27
To be with Christ in pure love and devotion is divine. All things must be given to the Lord for complete discipleship. My Lord has stripped me of all worldly items and desires. I am a bond servant to Christ. Your spirit my Lord holds me fast to your love. For you are in me.
Any personal relationship that is in conflict with the way of Christ, Jesus calls you to be immediately obedient to him. He is the way. People of human inclination devote themselves to all kinds of busy activities and they give themselves moral codes to live by. The calling for all those that say Jesus is Lord is to seek him always and to love your neighbor. The Lord Jesus calls you to his way. His way is to reconcile your life in all ways to him such that you too will be a river of living water such that he will be seen in you. This is the truth of the Holy Spirit.
