Luke 14:27-30

Whoever does not carry his own cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple. “For which of you, wanting to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and figure out the cost, to see if he has enough to finish it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish everything, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish!’
