Becoming...

And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. (Mark 1:17 KJV)

Jesus met the men where they were; at work along the sea shore. His words presented three truths for them and to us today.

1) There's a Point of Decision "Come ye after me"
2) There's a Process of Learning (growth) "I will make you to become"
3) There's a Purpose to be Achieved "Fishers of men"

Go fishing for Jesus today!

Lord Jesus, make me to become the fisherman You want me to be. Lead me to them so we can bring them in. In Your name I pray. Amen

NOW

"Behold, NOW is the accepted time; behold, NOW is the day of Salvation" 2 Corinthians 6:2

When I consider that God is timeless and that God exists in an "Eternal Now" I understand the importance of forgetting yesterday and not getting caught up in thoughts of tomorrow, but focusing on the "Now" of my life. God wants me and you to give Him our complete and total obedience NOW. We must live for Him at this moment, today!

Challenge...

...Talk with God today
...Listen to God today
...Respond for God today

Give God yourself NOW

Lord Jesus, may my focus be on You today and use me now for Your purpose. In Your name I pray. Amen
