We've given up everything to follow you - Matthew 19:27

Those who give up current comfort and status will receive in the years to come and in eternity far more than they gave up

Peter never had riches but gave up everything he had:

  • His business
  • Status in his hometown
  • Comforts of home

He couldn't help but wonder what we would get in return

Everyone who had given up house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or property, for my sake, will receive a hundred times as much in return and will inherit eternal life - Matthew 19:29

Sound like a good trade-off!
