In responding to Jesus' call to follow Him, its possible that one thing or another might hinder our paths- a bad habit, bad relationships etc. He is however calling us and drawing us to come to Him, despite our issues. The rich man who came to Him despite our issues. The rich man who came to Jesus went away sad because he could not give up his wealth- the hindrance, to follow Jesus. I believe that even if he ( the rich man) expressed his inability to give up his wealth, yet showcased a desire to be with Jesus, the Lord Himself would have helped him out in with struggle.
Today, the Lord is still calling out to us. He wants us to come to Him with our faults and flaws, desiring to follow Him and know Him more. He gives us the strength and help we need to overcome these struggles in our lives.
