Follow Me!

"When Jesus heard this, he said to him, You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me" (Luke 18: 22 NIV).

Have you ever watched the dynamics in a group of geese? Whether they fly or walk, they follow the lead of this one goose that is ahead of them. It seems that without any questioning or reasoning these geese just walk after that one leader as he brings them from one place to another. If they are crossing the street, camping at the lagoons or taking a swim, they are always together. And what really spoke to me the other day was that they show a great discipline as they do not look to the left or to the right, but are all entirely pressing forward without any delay.

So don't you think that if these geese can do it, you can do it too? Do not waste your time any longer by wandering around alone, but choose to follow the One that will lead you out of your personal darkness. Do you want to be in a better place right now? Then just consider these geese one more time and look at their obedience and discipline. Follow the impulses of the Holy Spirit and chose to be a follower. I know you can do it! It's just a decision away and it's God's plan for your life!

Have a wonderfully blessed day!
