Fish For What?

I was looking back in things that I’ve journaled earlier this year and thought I’d share this with you. After reading Matthew 4:12-25, something stood out to me: There was no hesitation in Andrew and Peter’s obedience. Likewise, when God calls us to something there should be no hesitation in our obedience. “I’ll teach you how to fish for people” must have been a strange proposition. Who fishes for people? How do you do that? That’s crazy! Has God ever offered you a strange proposition? Has he ever called you to do something that seemed a bit odd? If he has you can probably attest to the greatest of God if you chose to obey Him. If God has never called you to do something strange, just wait...He probably will. But what God calls us to isn’t really as important as our response to that call. Will we “follow him at once” without delay? Ask God to grant you the ability to obey him without hesitation.
