Today’s reading, Jesus calls everyone to be his disciples.

How easily they drop their nets and move forward to follow the Lord.

Would I have so much faith and be ready to leave following Jesus?

In this daily life, Jesus call us to be his disciple , multiple times per day. We pay no heed to it and refuse to accept it as we claim to be busy.

This advent we have to pick a time during our day or night to dedicated our Lord – for prayer, reflection and above all – remember that when Lord is calling . We drop everything and follow Him!!!

AMEN

  1. So much easier said than done … Drop everything and follow the Lord, but so needed in our lives. Thank you Analyse.

  2. So True. So hard. We pray that at that moment we hear His voice. He won’t shout. He won’t force. And then comes the final day. No warning to the exact moment He calls us Home. This is it. May we all be ready at that final call.🙌

    My husband Herb was called 7 weeks ago. Without a doubt in my heart and mind he said “YES” when the Lord called him home✝️

    God bless us all! Stop Look and Listen.

  3. I find when I don’t take the time for daily prayer, my life is more chaotic. I find peace in knowing my time spent in prayer is always comforting. Prayers for peace in our world this Advent season! ❣️🙏🏼

  4. Jesus waits patiently for us to answer his call.I pray for renewed zeal in my faith this Advent season.
    Sincere condolences Cecilia,on the loss of your husband.

  5. Yes we sometimes let other things distract us from Jesus calling us to spend time with him. Your post was a wake up call for me. I need to put spending time in prayer and with the Lord first in my life. Cecilia sorry for the loss of your husband.
