Come Follow

Jesus saw the needs of the many "...in Galilee where so many Gentiles live, the people who sat in darkness have seen a great light. And for those who have lived in the land where death casts its shadow, a light has shined." (Matthew 4:15-16). As Jesus began to preach to the many he sent out a call to the few to come and follow. When I read how Peter, Andrew, James, and John dropped everything to fulfill the call on their lives it caught me by surprise, no I've read it before but it caught me off guard because I know how easy it is to hold onto that which we know and how uncertain feels. Would I do the same, listen he is calling now - what will my answer be? Do I consider myself among the many or the few...
