Matthew 4

This chapter was something I thought about a lot today. First the all familiar story of Jesus in the wilderness and being tempted by the devil. Jesus knew what he was on earth to do and he would not be disuaded. After his 40 days he begins his teaching years by calling his disciples. This was where I really took pause. Can you imagine being asked to leave everything and follow some guy? What would make you do that? These guys left everything, family, career, home and followed a complete stranger. I still marvel at this. Being honest, I really and truly don't think that I would do this.
