—Mark 3:13-19a
by: Paul Andries.
There is a striking significance about this passage: Jesus didn't only call the twelve; he called them with a purpose. According to v. 14 he brought them under his tutelage so that they might do what he had called them to do. What about you? Why do you believe God has saved you? Have you recognized and acknowledged God's calling on your life? Contrary to popular teachings, you have been called not to sit, but to be mobilized in profitable Christ-like service.
