JESUS SAID "COME, FOLLOW ME
I WILL MAKE YOU FISHERS OF MEN"
HE MEANT TO SET EVERYTHING ASIDE
YOUR FAMILY...YOUR HOME...YOUR KIN


HE KNEW THAT IF WE LOVED HIM
WE WOULD HEARKEN TO HIS WORD
WE WOULD SHOW THIS BY HIS TEACHINGS
MAKING SURE THAT EVERYONE HEARD


SPREADING ALL ....'THE GOOD NEWS'
AND LETTING OUR LIGHTS SHINE
TELLING ALL..THE REWARDS OF HEAVEN
THEY WON'T FIND IN ANY SHRINE


FOLLOWING JESUS ISN'T EASY
THE ROADS, ROCKY AND DUSTY, AT BEST
TEACHING ABOUT GOD AND HIS KINGDOM
ALMOST CONTINUAL...WITH NOT MUCH REST


ALTHOUGH...THE SATISFACTION DERIVED
BY LEADING SOULS INTO GODS FOLD
COULD NEVER COMPARE TO ANYTHING ELSE
NOT MONEY...NOT SILVER...NOR GOLD!

MATTHEW 4:18-22
AND JESUS WALKING BY THE SEA OF GALILEE
SAW TWO BRETHREN, SIMON CALLED PETER, AND
ANDREW HIS BROTHER....CASTING A NET INTO
THE SEA...FOR THEY WERE FISHERS.
AND HE SAITH UNTO THEM "FOLLOW ME AND I WILL
MAKE YOU FISHERS OF MEN"
AND THEY STRAIGHTWAY LEFT THEIR NETS AND FOLLOW
HIM...AND GOING ON FROM THENCE HE SAW THE OTHER TWO
BRETHREN, JAMES THE SON OF ZEBEDEE AND JOHN HIS
BROTHER, IN A SHIP WITH ZEBEDEE THEIR FATHER
MENDING THEIR NETS AND HE CALLED THEM. AND THEY
IMMEDIATELY LEFT THE SHIP AND THEIR FATHER AND
FOLLOWED THEM
