"Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away." Matthew 14:22
Jesus made them get into the boat, were the disciples made or did they recognize the authority of Jesus and did as He said. I am sure some of them wanted to stay with Jesus, some didn't want Jesus to stay but they all heeded the Masters voice. How about you, do you recognize the authority of Christ in your life and do as He says? I wanted to sleep longer this morning but I heard the call. Do I heed His voice or do I do what I want to do? Listening and obeying is what God asks of each of us. He knows what is best for you so my advice is do what He tells you, and follow His encouragement in your life. He knows how to navigate what lies ahead.
Dear Father God, You always know what is best for us and You know what purpose is to be accomplished. Help us do as You ask of us, maybe we are struggling with that choice, it is Your authority that we obey. Help us understand there are consequences to not obeying your voice when we operate under our own authority. I pray for an acquaintance who got hurt in a four wheeler accident may she be healed from all injuries and brought back to fullness of life. I ask this through the Son of God, Jesus Christ, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Divine Mercy, pray for us.
