Leave everything ... I mean everything - Luke 5-6

Peter was fishing and caught nothing. Jesus borrows his boat and uses it as a platform to launch a sermon that attracts followers to Himself. After, Jesus tells Peter about a fishing hole so good Peter catches enough fish to sink two boats. What happens next is profound: Peter leaves it all! Boat to dry dock and fish to dry rot. What a marvelous, spiritual thing to do. As a boater I might be tempted to leave the fish, but to leave the boat? Unheard of! But, that is what Peter did (Luke 5:11). Next we see Matthew collecting taxes. Tax collects weren't very honest in Biblical times (no joke here, please). They would collect the tax and then add an amount for themselves. In Luke 11:27-28 we see that Matthew is sitting at his tax table and must have had a pile of money on the table. Jesus calls him to follow Him and Matthew leaves a life of luxury to follow the Savior. He no doubt exchanged a home and bed for a life under the stars and sleeping on rocks. What made these men do this? They were willing to leave all to follow the Savior. They were so compelled by the power of the Savior to forsake their lives as they knew it and follow Christ. Are we so compelled that we would be willing to follow Him, where ever He leads? Would we leave it all behind?
