Jesus called people to follow him and to be with him. As they spent time with Jesus, they learned what it was to be his disciple or apprentice. Jesus is still calling people to be disciples by being with him. We can be with him by spending time in his word, in prayer, in a discipleship community, and by yielding to the Spirit of God. In our fast paced world, it’s difficult to slow down to be with Jesus, but it is the first step to being a disciple. We often fill our day with so many things that it squeezes out our time with Jesus. What can you do today to be with Jesus?
