John 1:35-42

I can't fathom what it took to be a disciple during Christ's time on earth. John the
Baptist spent his days preaching to his followers of a coming Savior and here we read
John's announcement of this man. These men were blessed with the gift to know and be
taught by Jesus. What an experience this must have been and yet I wonder if they had any idea of the significance of what they were exposed to. They witnessed first hand
the Living God walking and teaching among them. Christ's message of salvation and sacrifice lives on more than 2000 years since he walked the earth even though some
may say that it has been diminished.

Today it is so easy to get caught up in living life. We all need to provide for our
families as well as enjoy the fruits of our labor. I am grateful for my life and all
that I have been given and do try and give back but am I doing all that I could? The
disciples gave up everything to follow Christ and though I'd like to think my faith is at the top of my list my actions show different. My challenge is to strive to walk in the Light the Lord has provided for His believers and seek His will for me in this life.
