My conclusion..

Ever since I decided to leave the world behind and follow Jesus, I have known it means giving up certain things. I have also known that giving up those certain things would come at a price. 

People out in the world don't seem to have a clue about what they are missing. They just continually live the same year over and over. I cannot do it. 

I want more. I want better things. I want to make every day count. I want Jesus to be bigger than anything else. 

I don't want to be a part of leading others astray. I want to be a light that brings people closer to God. I want to pray more. I want to read my Bible more. 

I would rather be on the outside and know that I am doing right and good things. If not being included and being made fun of is the price, I will keep paying that price. 

Whatever the cost. 

Because my Savior paid the ultimate price. 

So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. (I Corinthians 15:54-58 NKJV)
