Today’s scriptures are challenging. I feel like I took the easy route of studying Re-Organizing My Priorities with Luke 5:4-6, 8-10. But these verses brought forth a wonderful picture of obedience to Christ that I’ve studied many times, but never saw quite this way before.
The conclusion that I drew from these verses is that Jesus reveals to us what He wants us to do. We can choose to obey or not. If we do obey, we will be blown away by what He is capable of accomplishing through us. We will be humbled to be a part of His work and we will make an eternal difference.
This is my prayer today: to be part of His work, regardless of what that is. Whether it’s the same thing I’ve done for Him over the last days or weeks, or whether He wants to change things up and put me somewhere new. I want people to see Jesus, not me. I am just grasping His robe and hanging on for the ride.
