Jesus - Walk into our lives!!!

A very small paragraph has been in my face this week- really all my life....

Pg. 109-
"Given who He thinks He is, He has every right to walk into our lives, interrupt our plans and command us: "Come to me. Follow me. Lose your life for Me!"

Come to me - all day long - from the minute I wake up the Spirit of Jesus whispers to me, "Come to me." What do I do?
Do I obey?
Do I ignore Him?
Do I say no to Him?
Do I say yes to Him...but then never come?

More often than not I respond with a yes! I respond, "YES JESUS!" - but then fail to pick up the feet of my heart and head and move towards Him. 

JESUS - "Come to Me"
REID - "Ok - hold on Jesus - I am almost done with this...be right there!" (Sound Familiar?)
JESUS - "Lose your life for Me" 
REID - "Jesus mucho take it easy on the death talk! You came to give life and give it more abundantly remember?........- what is with all this crucifixion talk?
JESUS - "Follow ME"
REID - "Jesus why do you keep telling me to follow you?  I thought I was!"
