Morning Inspiration with Pastor Merritt It never ceases to amaze me that the first two words Jesus ever said to those who would become His followers were Follow Me. There are two amazing things about those words. What He said and why He said it. Think about it. When He said those two words, He was talking to complete strangers. He gave them no formal introduction. He presented no credentials, no proof of id, no drivers license and no social security number. He just simply said, Follow Me. Can you imagine what immediately went through their minds? Follow you?” I dont even know you.” Look at their response, Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. Mark 1:18. They were gone in sixty seconds! In the blink of an eye, with a snap of a finger, gone, left home, business, friends and family and began to follow Jesus. If you want to know what a true Christian is--there you have it. A Christian is a follower of Jesus. That is where the Christian life begins and ends--following Jesus in life and following Jesus through death. The lesson to be learned here is to follow, is to fish or to put it even more simply--Followers Fish. Share this with a friend. Give them the gift of God’s inspiration. #Jesus #Christian #Church #Faith
