www.dailythoughts.com Matthew 9:59-60 7-2-2018

"And to another he said, "Follow me." But he replied, "[Lord,] let me go first and bury my father." But he answered him, "Let the dead bury their dead. But you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God."" Luke‬ ‭9:59-60‬

Seems pretty harsh of Jesus to say that but If you think about what God sees, He sees all.   The verse just before this Jesus seems to be overwhelmed by the task for wherever He goes there is need.  "Jesus answered him, "Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head."" ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9:58‬.  Can we not say the same thing about this day and age.   How many are spiritual died caught up in the world not really giving any thought to their souls.  Your soul is important, Christ is asking those who follow Him to speak up, to point the way to salvation.  Our time to figure it out is short and eternity is forever.  

Dear Heavenly Father, I am spiritual alive seeking to know more, place the arrows in my quiver and allow me to draw back the bow when the time is right.  Awaken those of us who are spiritually dead and give new life in a world in need of freedom.  May You always be in my mind and in my thoughts, may You be on the tip of my tongue and may I not be over powering.  I ask this in the name of Salvation, Jesus Christ, Amen.  

Mary, Mother of Divine Providence, pray for us.
