They Left Their Nets And Followed Him
As Jesus was walking beside the
Going
on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee
and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee,
preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and
their father and followed him.
Matthew 4:18-22
We can take walks in city parks or in the mountains, or along the
seashore. And no matter where we go, if our mind is right, we are walking with
Jesus at our side. He never leaves us alone. He is our guide.
The journey is not always easy. Sometimes giving up seems easier
than going on, but when things get difficult, we can rest awhile and renew our
strength. We can take a break, pray for guidance, and get what we need to
sustain us. Just when we think we have no more to give, we are given more, and
that is to be shared with others.
As you travel life’s weary road, let
Jesus lift your heavy load.
