Follow the Messiah and Abandon All
Jesus Christ did not call any woman to follow Him as long as the Bible says.
On the other hand, if they had not been called directly and individually to follow Him, those men to be revered later as Apostles might not have spontaneously followed Him.

According to one theory, there were 40,000 residents in Jerusalem when Jesus Christ lived.
(Another theory claims that there were two million Israelites in Palestine around the first century A.D.)
There might have been 400,000 Israelites in the region near Jerusalem and Galilee.
(For instance, today 10 percent of the Japan's population lives in Tokyo Pref.)
Jesus Christ might have spoken to two men in the morning and two other men in the afternoon in average; then he could directly preach about 4 men per day the gospel. Then 1,460 men per year. About 4,000 men during His mission. Or 2,000 men and 2,000 women.
It accounts for 1% of the population. However, as it includes minors and infants, all the grown-ups must have heard a rumor of Jesus Christ in the region near Jerusalem and Galilee 2000 years ago.
But, records about his face-to-face preaching are not many in the Bible. Only scores of direct conversations are recorded.
There must be about 4,000 independent conversations, between Jesus Christ and a man or a woman, which are unfortunately not covered in the Bible.
Besides, while there are "four independent reports" about Jesus Christ, their contents are very similar, leaving 4,000 encounters untold.
If you think I got one figure too many, there are 400 encounters untold, which still makes the identical contents of the "four independent reports" impossible.
This is a big mystery. However, it might tell how the "four Gospels" were edited and compiled.

Would you follow Jesus Christ if you are called by Him?
If you are a rich and happy woman, probably you might not.
But, even if you are a rich and happy man, still you might think you have to.
(Buddha was a rich and happy prince, but he abandoned all.)

I think I will admire a believer who would swear to God that she or he would surely follow Jesus Christ if so called by Him
In that case, please try to record your conversation with Him and report it for future generations.
If I am, I will do so.
(Telling somebody to follow me or being told to follow somebody is a critical situation. You must be prepared well beforehand for the situation whether consciously or unconsciously. But, any woman or man should not try to master a skill or a magic just to make others follow her or him for her/his own profits.)
