Lord Jesus, who leads your disciples in wisdom, help us to see what following you may cost, that we would not be surprised by what may come but seek after your ways with clear eyes and the assurance that our reward is great, through you who died that we might live and now reigns in glory with the Father and Holy Spirit, world without end. Amen.
‘For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not first sit down and estimate the cost, to see whether he has enough to complete it?’ – Luke 14:28
