Follow Jesus
“Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honour the one who serves me.” John 12:26
Earlier this month there was a story about a 26-year-old lady who drove her Toyota Highlander down a flight of stairs and claimed she was “following her GPS instructions”.
The Police Officers that apprehended her didn’t buy her claim, as they were of the opinion that it was her “excessive blood alcohol level” that led to the unusual driving through the police headquarters parking lot, across a pedestrian plaza, and down the stairs.
“We are fortunate that she didn’t strike anyone and this ended with just a small amount of property damage,” the Police Department said in a Facebook post. “Please don’t drink and drive.” The woman was issued a summons for allegedly driving drunk.
Interestingly, people are overly obedient to machines these days but they will not follow the Lord. They obey instructions from gadgets but will not do what the Lord says. We shouldn’t be like that.
“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” James 1:22
