After this he went out and saw a man named Levi at his work collecting taxes. Jesus said, “Come along with me.” And he did—walked away from everything and went with him.

Luke 5:27- 28 MSG

No one is too far from Your love, God.

When I’m at my darkest, You keep asking me to follow You.

Despite what I have done and the burdens I carry, You ask me to follow You.

But there is a price in choosing that.

I have to leave the old me behind, walk away from the things I’ve done on my own, the path I thought I would take.

This can be so hard, Father, stepping away from what I have always known.

But I trust You will be there beside me every step of the way.

No one is unusable by the Lord, including me.

Help me walk into my destiny today, following my Savior.
