SAME CALLING, DIFFERENT COMPREHENSION
You may ask, "How do I know that my comprehension lines up with what God wants it to be?" We can tell that we're understanding life the same way as our Bible heroes when our faith begins to look the same. Things that we would've never dreamed to believe God could do suddenly don't seem so out of reach. When God asks us to sacrifice something we never could've imagined giving up & we take that step of faith to surrender it to Him - that's when you know that your comprehension of life now and life after this is where it should be.
As we'll read in a second, Jesus makes it clear what it looks like to live with this type of paradigm when He says that we should be storing up treasure not on earth, but in Heaven where it won't rust or wear out.
Our comprehension is correct when its concentrated on the future instead of the present or the past.
Practical Steps: Ask God for your next step of faith. You probably already know what it is and you're scared to take that step: take it anyways & see what God does.

God's calling has remained the same through centuries: the question is, what will our response be?
