BRING THEM HERE

Today's reading: Matthew 14-16

"Bring them here, he said." Matthew 14:18 NLT

Jesus is speaking to His disciples in this portion of Scripture.

It's just before He prays over the five loaves and two fishes and feeds 5,000.

It's a simple command.

It's a do-able request.

It's directed at just who He intends to carry it out.

And this morning, as I sit in my prayer chair--I realize His command hasn't changed.

It's not gotten harder.

It's not had steps added to it.

It's the exact same--Bring them to me.

Bring 'them' to Me.

'Them' might be your lost loved ones.

'Them' might be your heart's burdens.

'Them 'might be your neighbors who don't know the Lord yet.

'Them' might be your heart aches.

'Them' might be your broken dreams, dashed hopes and wildest imaginations.

'Them' might be your fears, your regrets, your shameful moments.

'Them' might just be your enemies.

Bring them to Me.
