I read it,, and I can hear Jesus tell the disciple, come follow me.. and when they said , let us go and tell our family we are leaving.. He said , no, follow me now... and that is the question to answer in this day, and in this time.. will you follow now.. you can keep your job,, your house, you car, your family.. and still follow Him.. but you must put HIM first and foremost.. can you, and most of all WILL YOU? A choice given by God to and for you to make,,, and only you can make it.. so,, what are you waiting on,, this is a "no-brain-er" right?
