Leading the Way

Jesus' earthly ministry was coming to a close and it was time to prepare His disciples for the days that lay ahead.  He already knew what would face Him in Jerusalem, and that it wouldn't be easy for His apostles to accept. 

However, Jesus never lost sight of His mission from God, and was willing to fulfill God's plan for the salvation of each one of us.  With the Savior leading the way, the group headed for Jerusalem.  Soon the Master’s commission would become theirs. (Matthew 28)

Like Jesus, all believers have a mission to fulfill for God.  Our responsibility is to carry out that calling no matter how hard it may seem. 

It is time to go unto Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and all the world with the message of salvation.  As Christ led the first disciples with their commission in Acts 1:8, listen to His voice and act on what He says. (jw/cw)

“Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long.”  Psalm 25:5 ESV
