His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
– John 2:5 (NASB)
In today’s Bible verse, Mary, Jesus’ mother told the servants at the wedding to do whatever Jesus said to do. This is great advice for any of us who are following God’s plan for our lives. Often, we make following after Jesus hard. We might stress over what career path to choose or who to date. And while those are important decisions to get His input on, following Jesus isn’t always about the big things. Often, following Jesus is about smaller things.
What is that one thing that you feel like Jesus has told you to do? Maybe you feel Him leading you to call a friend you haven’t spoken to in awhile. Perhaps you had an idea to bake cookies for a sick neighbor. Today, don’t over-complicate what you feel Jesus is leading you to do with doubt and fear. Instead, simply do what He told you to do.
Whatever it is that Jesus has spoken to you to do, do it. As you do, He will lead you and guide you into more things. Today, don’t be afraid to step out and do the things He has put on your heart to do.
