And passing along by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you become fishers of men.” And immediately they left their nets and followed him.
Mark 1: 16 – 18

When Jesus calls us to do something whether its pursue a religious ordinated life, or lay calling of evangelizing how fast do we respond? Is the answer “immediately”? We must be willing to leave our “nets” nor matter what they may be and follow Jesus to where ever He wants us to go!
