What Are You Being Called To Do?

You know, I was thinking. When Jesus called Peter he used a miracle to get his attention! Peter recognized immediately that Jesus had great power. Peter also did not hesitate to drop everything that he was doing in his life to follow the savior! Jesus provided for Peter that day and made him a promise that he would be able to start catching men instead of fish.
The decision that Peter made that day would evetually cost Peter his life. In time Peter would suffer greatly and yet through it all Peter was a willing servant. Jesus is calling us to put our lives on the line for Him today. We may not every be slain because of our faith but we are being called to step out of the world and be different. We are being called to give up everything we have for the cause of Christ. Some may be called to give up their livelyhood, while others will need to put aside friends and loved ones, but most of us are being called to put aside our pride and selfish ambitions for the Savior. Is the price too high? Only you can make that decision! But believe me when I say that the return on your investment is out of this world. Be blessed beyond belief today.

You know, I was thinking....we studied Matthew 5:23-24 last night.."Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift. In this season of giving, I have got some work to do!!!No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins. And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for he says, 'The old is better.
