It's our decision.  Jesus leaves it in our hands.  He doesn't push us, drag us or guilt us. He doesn't text us, barrage us with emails, or pop up to chat with us while we're on Facebook.   He simply invites us to make the decision every day, "Come follow me."  When we do, when we consciously ask for His help, listen to what He is saying and look for opportunities to serve Him throughout our day, He makes us into something.  "I will make you fishers of men," He told his disciples.  As soon as we take the step to follow Him, He begins the work of remaking us.  Sound exciting?  Then go for it.

1. Pray (ask God to make you His servant today)
2. Study (listen to Jesus by carefully reading a chapter in a gospel)
3. Share (Share with a group or friend how you prayed, what Jesus taught you and your experience following Him today)

    I can plod. I can persevere in any definite pursuit. To this I owe everything.
