Put Down Your Nets…A Pilgrimage to the Holly Land (Arriving)

                                                              Put Down Your Nets

Here you are…
You’ve come—put down your nets.
Will you follow?
Are you able to put down ‘everything’ and
step in the footprints of my sandals?

THIS world.  What do you hold in your
mind at this time?
Cast all aside—open the four chambers
of your heart to my message of
long ago—Follow me.

These ‘friends’ I called
risked everything—they longed for

has JUST begun…
