“Behold . . .
We go up to Jerusalem. . . “
Luke 18:31
Today’s news struck an ominous note to me . . . Lebanon was being bombed by Israel. . . and
Jerualem would be a retaliation target. That is not really anything “new”, unfortunately, in the history of our world. In Jesus’ time, Jerusalem / Israel was under Rome’s military Occupation.
But Jesus, knowing what was to come for Him . . . His ultimate Mission and Death, . . . still
went, and brought His closest friends with Him.
What might Jesus be asking you to do this day, as you follow Him?
Are you paying attention?
Is it scary?
Is it beyond what you think you can do?
Maybe it’s “the worst” you could imagine.
You . . . I . . . we do not know what lies ahead. But Jesus does. And as He calls your name this day, or tomorrow, or next week and beyond, the Call is direct . . . and clear: “Let’s go . . . “ with Him.
When you choose to follow, that is the bottom line.
Will you follow His, “Let’s go” ?
