The Plow

Luke 9:62

But Jesus said to him, "No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

Have you put your hand to the plow for the cause of Christ? I find it fascinating that Jesus does not say put your hand to the plow and do the best you can. He emphatically proclaims that if you look back to your old life you are not fit or the kingdom of God.

This is a word to all of you whether you have been a Christian for 2 months or 20 years. Do not yearn for the things of the world. Do not look to your neighbors and think "man they seem to be having so much fun." Life begins when you lose your taste and desire for the things that draw your attention away from the plow.

Jesus Christ has chosen you for service to his kingdom...

Don't look back...

Pray daily to keep the plow steady in service to our champion, Christ Jesus...Godspeed!
