What did it cost Horatio Stafford to write "It Is Well With My Soul"? A glorious hymn that has strengthened, encouraged and comforted millions through the decades. It cost him his wealth lost in the San Francisco fire, his son who died of scarlet fever, his daughters lost in a ship sinking and finally even his sanity. Was it too high a price to pay? Can our Saviour ask too high a price of us?
37 Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39 Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
Matthew 10:37-39
