Reflection on Luke 5

Reflection on Luke 5

Luke 5
Jesus is the BETTER leader. He befriends and equips those he calls to live for greater purposes than they had envisioned.
He calls fishermen to become fishers of men (Luke 5:1-11)
'Jesus said to Simon, “Don't be afraid; from now on you will be catching people.”
and
transforms Levi's life when he calls the tax collector to follow him and be a part of his ministry.

...“After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting in his office. Jesus said to him, 'Follow me.' Levi got up, left everything and followed him. Then Levi had a big feast in his house for Jesus, and among the guests was a large number of tax collectors and other people... (Luke 5:27-32)

May we rest assured that Jesus calls us to follow him whole-heartedly because he loves us and wants the best for us. 

May we be confident in the fact that Jesus will lead us as we follow him and be with us through the toughest and roughest seasons of our lives.
