The gospel records include a number of instances where Jesus called upon men and women to become a disciple. On one occasion, the Lord walked by a man’s tax booth and simply said, “Follow Me” (Mark 2:14). That man was Matthew and he became one of Christ’s hand-picked apostles.

During the days of Jesus, you could but five sparrows for the price of four. The fifth sparrow was thrown in for free. Yet of that extra bird the Lord declared, “And not one of them is forgotten before God.” Jesus then tenderly said, “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows” (Luke 12:6-7). Evangelist Don Pruitt reminds us that God knows that fifth sparrow, and He knows you too.
Service to the Lord is a life-long commitment. There is no retirement plan for Christ’s soldiers. Evangelist Rick Martin reminds us that we have a responsibility to God which should motivate our work for Him all the days of our lives even into old age.
