Lent 2014 day 31 by ric gustafson
Luke 18:22- ' Sell everything you own and distribute the money to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven. And come follow me'.
The key words in this story are Come follow me. What do we need to leave behind to follow Jesus?. Do we possess comfort and security or maybe it is social standing. Jesus did not want what this young man had. What Jesus wanted was the young man's heart. Jesus wanted to see if there was anything standing in the way of serving God first.
I pray that nothing stands in my way of being a disciple for Jesus.
