“I will follow you wherever you go.” – Matthew 8:19 - Daily Bible Reflections June 27, 2016


NO BACKING OUT
 
“I will follow you wherever you go.” – Matthew 8:19
 
     We were making final arrangements for a travel destination we wanted to visit but the hotels with good reviews were all fully booked.
       So we took a risk and did a blind booking, which means we wouldn’t know exactly what hotel we’d get until we have paid for it. I was worried but I knew it would be a nice vacation no matter what. The satisfaction of going to our dream destination was far greater than some discomforts we might have to bear.
       To decide to follow Christ entails full commitment and total surrender — no chance to think twice and back out. It means  putting Him first above all things and everybody else. It requires us not just to be with Him but to live for Him and follow His way of life.
       People who do not believe in Jesus may ridicule us. We may need to sacrifice and suffer a lot. But that’s how Christ laid out the cost of following Him.
      It’s daunting, isn’t it? But there is nothing more gratifying than to serve Christ who leads us to bliss eternal. Jane Gonzales-Rauch (mgr516@gmail.com)
 
Pope Francis Says: “We cannot be part-time Christians! We should seek to live our faith at every moment of every day.”
 
Lord Jesus, I offer my life in total surrender for Your glory. Guide my footsteps that I may follow Yours. Amen.
 
St. Cyril of Alexandria, bishop and doctor of the Church, pray for us.
