Why is it so difficult to consistently follow Jesus?

1. We like the easy road.
Creature comforts are comfortable!
Do Hard Things is the name of a book, not the desire of most people.
Alex and Brett Harris wrote the book, very few of us want to live the life.
In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day by Mark Batterson

James 1:2-4 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

Why are trials necessary for our faith?

2. Our priorities are vague and shift over time.
Many start out well, following Jesus, learning and growing; but something happens as life intrudes and pressure from others to conform overwhelm us. The culture around you is against Christ and it is overwhelming in the volume of mixed messages it sends. Any of them will lead you on a path away from Jesus and the enemy is happy with that.

Why is it so difficult to clarify and keep Biblical priorities?
