Main Question What would it mean to resolve to follow Jesus more closely in your life? - Jesus wanted to show the first disciples how to catch people who were falling, so they could make a difference with their lives.
- We all want to make a difference, even in some small way, to the lives of other people. We want our lives to matter.
- You have to be willing to follow Jesus. And that means you have to be willing to leave the familiar life behind.
- It is hard to find anyone in the Bible who is in a serious drama with God and is undergoing a change for the better who is not on the move.
- Will you allow the inevitable changes of life to change you into a person who is better equipped to make a difference? Or, will you waste your losses in life by settling into the role of a victim? This is your choice.
- The point of following Jesus isn’t to get settled into a new place. The point of following Jesus is just to follow Jesus.
- You have not yet fully encountered Jesus if you don’t know about His compelling nature.
- I don’t know what your call may be, but if Jesus is the one who is making the call, it is always a call first and foremost to follow Him.
