And going on a little farther, He (Jesus) saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets. And immediately He called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed Him. Matthew 1:19, 20
Lord these are such interesting verses. Yesterday our verses told us about Simon and Andrew leaving when they were casting their nets to catch fish. Today we see that James and John were mending their nets and they immediately left their father and the hired servants and went with You.
What made them drop what they were doing and follow You. Obviously they knew who You were and what You were doing. They were willing to leave everything and follow You.
Today how thankful I am that we too are called to come follow You Lord. Our lives are changed when we answer Your call. Oh how I thank You for Your changes in my life.
Thank You Lord.
