“None of you can be my disciple unless you give up everything you have.” (Luke 14:33)

When Jesus sent out His disciples in pairs to preach, He demanded that they should not bring their sticks, bags, food and money, nor they should bring a second tunic. The most important thing Jesus wanted them to bring was the spirit of Christ and the spirit to love one another.

When Jesus said “Possession of All”, He did not mean only the material aspect. It also implied the aspect of thought. If we do not open ourselves and be humble, it is difficult for us to co-operate with others. Neither the Holy Spirit can work on us.

God’s Grace upon each individual is different. If we could supplement each other’s insufficiency with our God-gifted talents, our achievement would be tremendously amplified. It is important to learn to listen, and not to be stubborn. If we treat each other and manage our lives with the same attitude, the Holy Spirit will be in our midst. Then, the wisdom we possess does not come from human being but from Heavenly God. It is because we live in our love.
