"At Once"

Listened to the book of Mark this last week. Love that when you listen you catch things that you might not when you read.

Check it out.

"12At once the Spirit sent him out into the desert...

18At once they left their nets and followed him.

43Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning...

Placed a question in me of "would I leave at once?" if God called me to follow. Do I live with a sense of urgency in that which should be dropped for that which is eternal?

Hardly. I hear myself even saying out loud to my kids all the time "let me just finish..."

Praying for me to be more responsive in my life to the eternal.
