Me follow Jesus said
Gospel of Matthew Ch 9 v- 9 thru 13
9 As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the customs post. He said to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed him. 10 While he was at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat with Jesus and his disciples. 11 The Pharisees saw this and said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 He heard this and said, “Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do. 13 Go and learn the meaning of the words, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.”
Follow Me? Have you heard the words or should I say command? Follow Me? Notice the Me is capitalized with the Me being Jesus! Follow Me. My wife and I have been capitalizing the references to Jesus for some time. He keeps the Trinity Whole. Follow Me? When did you hear it? Was it while you read your bible? Did Jesus whisper in your ears and tell you to get up and follow Him? Remember, Jesus doesn’t require you to embellish anything in your life any more. He forgives you for every time you ever didn’t speak the Truth but guide yourself to living Salvation Redeemed as proof. There is no reason to tell others something that isn’t true you can’t make bigger what you’ve already encountered in your youth. Jesus gives mercy and expects not a sacrifice to know Life Eternal this is His promise when you truly Follow Him. No reason to make anything different but the truth of living Redeemed! Follow Me Jesus says can you say you are actually doing this each and every day you know learning to always pray. We call it practice, prayer and proclamation each day sharing peace, passion and persistence of mercy and grace speaking the Truth calling the sinners to Jesus in you. Amen.

01-25-2023 Matthew Gospel Ch 9 v-0913
**Me follow Jesus said to pray**
Man seen named Matthew passed along the way
Me follow Jesus said leaving post of customs to pray
Him followed that night it is where they would stay
Disciples and Jesus ate with sinners and collectors of tax that day
This seen by Pharisees wondering what to say
Sinners and collectors of tax why does Teacher yours play
Jesus responded physician need not as well as you may
Sick obviously do words meaning learn mercy desire I to portray
Sacrifice not ok
Sinners call each day
Righteous not to fray
The call of mercy isn’t gay
