Come, Follow Jesus

One day Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee. He saw two brothers named Simon and Andrew. They were fishermen, throwing their nets into the water. Jesus said to them, "Come and follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." That meant they would help bring people to God. Right away, Simon and Andrew left their nets and followed Jesus. A little farther down, Jesus saw two more brothers, James and John. They were in their boat with their father, fixing their nets. Jesus called them too. They left the boat and followed Jesus. This week you learned that Jesus is God's Son. He came as a baby. He loves children. He is stronger than storms. He died for our sins and rose again. Jesus still calls people today, and that includes you. Following Jesus means loving Him, trusting Him, and learning to obey Him. If you want to follow Jesus, you can tell Him in prayer. You can also talk with your parent or Pastor Meredith about it.
