Come & Follow Me
​

Jesus said to His disciples, "Come and follow me......". And they - dropped their nets, left their business, or there families - and followed Him.  Now that was pretty simple - simple but not easy. For us in the 21st century it is still simple, but not easy.  'Yes Jesus I will follow you, just as soon as I take care of a few things. I will follow you when I am finished with this current project. I am following you. I am coming.'

This weekend we shift from daylight savings time to standard time.  In a sense, sometimes I think we are operating on our own 'Easy life time' and Jesus asks us to operate on Life following Jesus time. 

One of the truths the Leavell's are realizing, is that when Jesus says Come - or Go we must keep it simple even though it is not easy.  Obedience to the Lord, is simple, and it it immediate - it requires dropping everything and following Him.  Anything else may be easier, but I am not so sure it isn't Disobedience.
