“Jesus went out along the sea. All the crowd came to him and he taught them. As he passed by, he saw Levi, son of Alphaeus, sitting at the customs post. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed Jesus. While he was at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners sat with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many who followed him. Some scribes who were Pharisees saw that Jesus was eating with sinners and tax collectors and said to his disciples, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” Jesus heard this and said to them, “Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do. I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.” -Mark 2:13-17
There is no sin too great, He will not forgive or sinner too far lost, that Our Lord Jesus will not pass by and say, ‘Follow me.’ He is a love we cannot comprehend. He did not come to save the righteous but to save you and me.
Lord Jesus, allow me the grace this day to get up and follow you. Amen.
