The early disciples dropped everything & followed Jesus. Granted, they had a physical Jesus present who verbally called them, and who they could see, hear, & touch. Today, we serve the same Jesus, only He is ascended, as the Scripture reveals; therefore, our obedience to the call is biblical with the Scriptures to show us how we are to follow Jesus today.
Strong message, It’s like pick up your cross and follow ME. When life leads you to meet Jesus thru life’s issues, and we hear and understand the life and responsibilities that are required, it’s making the decision to follow Him the way that we should. We all go thru issues that are many of times difficult, some are even life threatening. We Must trust in Him ALL the time because He and only HE has taken us out of bondage from the world and has us in Him, but there’s much more to grow in each of us. Converting from y the the world to Christ seems sometimes difficult because we don’t see that far into the future to secure safety, assurance etc. But trusting that Jesus has ALL in control and just like a child trusting his father that he will catch him, and not let him fall, will give us peace and understanding. Great word.
