Evening: Psalms 9, 15; Luke 9:51-62
Jesus’ invitation to follow him is often heard as a call to self-denial and sacrifice. But I think it’s more like: Do you really trust me? One man says, “I will follow you wherever you go.” We don’t know if he does that after Jesus’ tells him he will need to be ready to rough it. Two others have more important business right now. But Jesus says, in effect: Here’s the thing … Let go and let God take care of your many concerns. Draw strength from me. A disciple puts heart first; your feet will follow your heart
