Jesus called the crowd to him along with his disciples. He said,“ Whoever wants to be my disciple must say no to themselves. They must pick up their cross and follow me.
Then he said to all of them,“ Whoever wants to follow me must say no to themselves. They must pick up their cross every day and follow me.Whoever wants to save their life will lose it. But whoever loses their life for me will save it.
Jesus looked at him and loved him.“ You are missing one thing,” he said.“ Go and sell everything you have. Give the money to those who are poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Then come and follow me.”
