“Remaining Faithful”
“As he walked along, he saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at his tax collector’s booth. “Follow me and be my disciple,” Jesus said to him. So Levi got up and followed him.” Mark 2:14 (NLT)
The Struggle Is Real
The struggle has been real for me lately. I have been sick for over three weeks now. I suffer from the autoimmune disease, Crohn’s. I have been in remission for years, but something has happened lately to bring me out of remission. As the weeks have passed by, I have been in and out of doctor’s offices, had my blood and other things tested, taken medication and herbs, eaten healthy, but still no relief. So Wednesday, I will go in for a sonogram on my liver and the highlight of my day will be a colonoscopy.
Pursue the Lord
We all have things like this that make us feel fearful and anxious. We wonder what the test results will reveal and what the plan of action will be. So just like Levi did in Mark 2:14, we all must pursue the Lord and trust Him regardless of the cards we are dealt. I know when I remember how faithful God has been to me and how much He loves me, it makes my circumstances seem so small. I ask you to pray for me this week as I pray for any of your anxieties and fears.
