Are family expectations, career goals, or personal desires leaving you feeling spiritually empty?

Are family expectations, career goals, or personal desires leaving you feeling spiritually empty? It is natural to fiercely love our families and our lives, but Jesus issues a bold standard: He must sit entirely alone on the throne of our hearts. We cannot truly follow Him if we love anyone or anything more than we love the Lord. It requires total devotion and a willingness to clear out whatever gets in the way of our obedience, but His sacrifice on the cross demands nothing less. "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple."
