Ordained plan

Ordained plan. From the beginning. 

But religious leaders of the day were not picking up on God’s Word revealed. Prophecy fulfilled.

They just heard what Jesus said. And knew without a doubt by His choice of words: this rabbi, with his ragtag followers, was claiming to be God.  

Blasphemy. 

And they were furious. Deadly furious. 

He would not be tolerated.

Why follow Jesus?

Why would someone risk their life to follow Jesus? Why give up all for Christ? 

Eternal life with Him. Of course. 

But so much more. 

Across the years, we move. Entering new places. Living and learning in various cultures where following Jesus may cost everything. 

And I consider a few of the many reasons for choosing Him. Why I can’t imagine life without my Lord. 

Now and forever.
