Matthew 10:37-42

37The one who loves a father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; the one who loves a son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

38And whoever doesn’t take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

39Anyone who finds his life will lose it, and anyone who loses his life because of me will find it.

40“The one who welcomes you welcomes me, and the one who welcomes me welcomes him who sent me.

41Anyone who welcomes a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. And anyone who welcomes a righteous person because he’s righteous will receive a righteous person’s reward.

42And whoever gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”
