Mar 3 - "Heeding The Call"

Do you ever wonder what God is calling you to do? In this verse from Mark, Jesus seems to set a very high standard. Basically, it could be read as “drop everything and be My disciple; give up all worldly possessions and become My follower”.

But I think it is more about what you can do every day; little things that allow you to know in your heart that you are a Christian; that you are a follower of Christ. God calls us to be in relationship with him by being in relationship with one another. By showing love, helping, caring, consoling, laughing, crying, singing, dancing…all of these things…and doing them with each other in joy, we are heeding Jesus’ call to follow him.

So today, pray to know God’s will; pray to know His call to you. And, until you hear that call, simply…love!
