Do You Have the Faith?

Luke 5:27-28

“ And He said to him, Follow Me! So, leaving everything behind, he got up and began to follow Him.”

I wish I had the faith of that tax collector. To just drop it all and follow Jesus! Did you notice that he doesn’t even ask Jesus a question!? Before I could do that I would have a list of questions along with a pros & cons list of why I should and why I shouldn’t do what God was asking.

Sure, some days, on rare occasion, I step out of my comfortable box for Jesus. But, in reality? I really like to play it safe and keep things “normal.”

But how many opportunities do we miss because we don’t get up and follow Jesus when He asks us to?

•Maybe you hear God asking you to drop your career to and do something different.

•Maybe you are a Mommy feeling God tugging on your heart to stay home and raise His children that He gave you.

•Maybe you are a college student pursing a degree but you feel God calling you into the mission field.

•Maybe you struggle with addiction and God is telling you to drop it and run into his arms.

•Maybe you face depression and anxiety and God is asking you to leave that in the past.

•Maybe God is asking you to go home and love your family.

Whatever God is asking you to drop today, I pray that you have the faith to do it. I pray that we have the faith and courage to let go of our plan and follow Jesus without question.
