Mustard Seed Thoughts : Followship 5

I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.

I Am Found In You by Steven Curtis Chapman

Followship 5

By: Ron Edmondson Friday, August 29, 2008

My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand. John 10:27-28 NIV

Possibly the best news about following Jesus is that it is not a temporary assignment. It lasts for eternity.

I heard a preacher say once that “you can’t get eternal life and lose it or you never had eternal life to begin with”. Think about it. Eternal life is eternal. It never ends. When you become a follower of Jesus Christ, you become a child of God. God wouldn’t forsake His children, would He?

Jesus said in John 5:24, “I tell you the truth, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.” Your eternity with God begins when you say yes to following Jesus.

The best news of the day is that followers of Jesus Christ have eternity with Jesus Christ! If you are a follower of Jesus, say “Amen”. If not, become one today. Jesus is still looking for people who will “Follow Me”.

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me.” Jesus has invited you to have dinner with Him. Why not say yes today!
