Who is Jesus and What does He want from Me? Part 2

The answer is simple; nothing and everything.

Nothing in that we have nothing that is not His in the first place.  And everything because it is already His and not ours.

As Jesus calls us to follow Him there are four things we need to remember:

1.  We must listen to Him.

2.  He wants to turn from ourselves and be penitent.

3.  He wants us to tell others about Him.

4.  We must leave everything to follow Him.

Many see Jesus as a commodity that we can add onto our lives.  He cannot be added on, He must be our lives.  If we take the approach that He is a commodity then we will try and sell Jesus to the world.  We cannot do that.  We must show Jesus to the world and He will sell himself.
