Shade Tree Wisdom /9/915

St Shade Tree Wisdom 9/29/15
. Matthew reports that when Jesus was calling His disciples their action is reported so:
“and He called them.
Immediately they
Left the boat
And their father.
And followed Him.”
St. Matthew 4,21.22
          No hesitation, no debate, no ‘let’s talk about this for a while’, nor did they ask for time before they made the decision to follow the Lord.
If that had been the case I imagine some would have been talked out of it. “Look”, they’d say. “You just got started and it looks as if it will be a success. Make some money first and then we’ll see how it goes.
          Sound reasonable? It happens frequently, and often leaves us out, not doing anything.
          And the Lord is inviting, “The fields are white to the harvest”
          Our response should always, “Let us then be up and doing”.
