How Far Have You Been Called?

I wanted to make one other observation from our passage yesterday in the Garden of Gethsemene. I find it interesting that Jesus brought his twelve disciples, of all the many who followed Him, to the garden...then, of the twelve, took three--Peter, James and John--a little farther than the others. That's a great analogy for our Christian journey, too. God doesn't deal with each of us exactly the same. His plan for each of us is unique. It's easy for us to get caught up in what so-and-so is doing for God--what He's led them to do. But it's not our concern what God has for others. We have to stay in touch with God and do what He wants US to do. You may be a garden disciple...or even a "little farther" disciple...or you may just be a palm-laying disciple. Just be sure that you're where He has called you--as far, but no further--and you will have the peace that passeth all understanding.
