"...One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me." - Mark 10 V21

"that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;" - Colossians 1 V10

When the rich man expressed his righteousness before Christ, there was only one thing Christ said the rich man lacked, and that is, he lacked Christ. When we receive Christ into our heart, in return he does not ask for our money or possession or health, but He desires to have our heart, which is to say our everything. Those who follow Christ cannot follow him half-heartedly but the commitment should be in full. As believers let us walk worthy of Christ, fully pleasing Him and living our life for His glory, even if this means taking up the cross and following Him. Praise the Lord!
