When fans are asked about when they will get serious about their commitment to follow Jesus, the most common answer is tomorrow. There is a tendency to treat our relationship with Jesus like the diet we keep meaning to start. I'm going to start eating right, as soon as I finish off this chicken chimichanga. Tomorrow for sure. We treat our relationship with Jesus like the workout program we keep meaning to start. We go to bed telling ourselves, "Tomorrow I'm going to wake up early and exercise." But the following night we find ourselves getting into bed promising, "Tomorrow for sure." On the invitation Jesus gives us to follow him, there is an RSVP date and it reads: TODAY. The word tomorrow is not in the Holy Spirit's vocabulary. When Jesus calls us to follow, he means right now. He means today.
