There are many things in this life that can be "nets" that hold us captive. They are justified, tolerated, apologized for, condoned, excused, maintained, and even defended. Feelings of guilt, obligation, tradition, pride, or the fear of what others may think, are things that will prevent your walk with God. Jesus' call to us to "follow" Him is an invitation from Him, that cannot be fulfilled as long as we're still entangled with the "nets." They must be forsaken, and left behind. |
