Is it not enough that Christ should call us?

These are the words that came to me a few weeks back. I was thinking about discipleship and my own sense of call to ministry.

Is it not enough that Christ should call us? "Come, follow me. Take up your cross, and follow me."
Is it not enough that God should love us? "Come, be made whole. Look to the cross, and be made whole."
Is it not enough that the Spirit guides us? "Come, move with me. Lift high the cross, and move with me."


In these words I find comfort. Christ would not call us, if he did not have full faith in us and if he would not give us and empower us with all that we need to live out that call. So in that sense, it is enough.
