Listen to the Word "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." At once they left their nets and followed him.
(Mark 1:17-18)

Jesus found some fishermen in a boat and offered them a promotion:
follow Me, and you can start fishing for people. And they
followed Him at once! They left their nets, walking away from
their careers and from life as they knew it. He didn't even tell
them where they would be going. Still, they took the risk of
following Him.
Jesus
extends the same call to us: "Follow Me! Go where I lead
you. Live as I instruct you. Follow Me." Answering
that call is still a risk. It involves leaving some familiar
things behind. We don't know everything the journey will hold or
everywhere it will take us. Will you follow? Will you
follow at once?
