Mark 11:1-11

Mark 11:1-11 
The Message 

  Running ahead and following after -- there is consistently a group of followers surrounding Jesus, hanging on his every word, eager to be first to his destination, some a little late but still leaving behind whatever they were doing and chasing after.  There's an energy, an enthusiasm, an expectation.
  Do we still have that today?  Are you eager to hear what God has to say to you today?  Are you looking for what God might do next?
  Much of our life is lived in the ordinary, in the usual.  God is there, calling you to faithfulness in the midst of what is often routine.  God is also working in extraordinary ways, calling us to keep our eyes open to know how to join in with God's incredible efforts to continue building God's Kingdom.  
  In both the ordinary and the extraordinary, the routine and the unexpected, may we be ready to follow Jesus wherever he may lead, listening for God's voice, running ahead and chasing after, always looking for the Holy Spirit at work.
