And Peter said to Him, "Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?"
A man was going to climb a mountain with everything he owned strapped on his back. His guide told him that he couldn't make it to the summit, carrying everything. At some point he would have to make a decision to give up his stuff or give up the summit. Jesus promised them that if they gave up their stuff, they we reach the summit in the kingdom, and then they would be rewarded with many times as much and eternal life. The same is true for us. Whatever we sacrifice to reach the summit with Jesus will be worth it. At the summit we too will be rewarded with everything, plus eternal life. Let's make the right decision now.
