Following Jesus.

“Follow me”

Have you had a moment where you realised you need to get up, leave everything else, and follow Jesus?

Every disciple went through this. That moment of decision where the question is “fishing nets, family and finances- or Jesus?”

And wherever this mysterious wandering Teacher leads.

Whatever he leads to.

Have you ever had a moment where you made the choice that nothing else will do compared to Jesus?

Where you know that you’d literally sell everything else to buy that field and have that treasure?

Where everything else you have, possessions or relationships are expendable to get Jesus, and whatever he leads to?

Following Jesus begins from that moment you realise that nothing else will do.

And following Jesus means coming back to that same moment again and again.

It means learning to say with gladness, whatever the circumstances,

‘I just want you – and nothing else will do’

And in Jesus are more blessings than we could collect anywhere else.
