MARK 2:13-17
Health clubs offer various weight loss programmes, with one fitness centre catering to individuals aiming to lose at least 50 pounds and develop a healthy lifestyle. One member quit a previous club due to perceived judgement from slim and fit individuals. She now works out five days a week, achieving healthy weight loss in a positive environment.
Two thousand years ago, Jesus called the spiritually unfit to follow Him. Levi, a tax collector, was one of them. Jesus captured Levi’s heart and led him to follow Him. Tax collectors were often greedy, dishonest and considered religiously unclean. When religious leaders asked why Jesus ate with tax collectors and sinners, Jesus replied that he had come to call sinners.
We are all sinners, and that is why Jesus came—to save us. He calls us to follow Him, loves us, and welcomes us into His presence. We become more and more spiritually fit as we walk with Him.
🤔 Jesus’ arms of welcome are always open.
