Losses and gains
There is a cost for being a disciple of Jesus. How much are we willing to let go of our old ways in this journey of discipleship?

In today’s Gospel, Peter asked Jesus, “What about us? We left everything and followed you. What would we gain?”

"Child-likeness"
We all struggle with Jesus’ invitation to go back to being like little children. We are called to become like little children with a child-like attitude of trusting in God, our Father, and to let go of our fears and resistance to trusting God.

Into your hands I commend my soul:
I offer it to you with all the love of my heart,
for I love you, Lord, and so need to give myself,
to surrender myself into your hands without reserve,
and with boundless confidence,
for you are my Father.” (Bl. Charles de Foucauld)

"Be seasoned with salt in the path of following Christ!"
Jesus invites us to be seasoned daily with the salt of a true loving relationship with God and with one another. We are called to be salty Christians who bring the flavour of God’s love to our families, friendships and communities, so that we can be at peace with one another.
