Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone would come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.” (Matthew 16:24 ESV)
And if we answer the call to discipleship, where will it lead us? What decisions and partings will it demand? To answer this question we shall have to go to [Jesus], for only He knows the answer. Only Jesus Christ, who bids us follow Him, knows the journey’s end. But we do know that it will be a road of boundless mercy. Discipleship means joy.
-- Dietrich Bonhoeffer in “The Cost of Discipleship”
