YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT, BUT YOU CAN GET WHAT YOU NEED

The Rolling Stones sang, “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you just might find you’ll get what you need.”

Centuries before Mick Jagger sang those lyrics, Jesus expressed the idea in His words and His decisions. 

As Jesus called the disciples and created the original church, He demonstrated a principle that the church today must learn and apply. 

As we continue following the early days of Jesus’ earthly ministry we learn:  You can’t always get what you want, but if you follow Jesus------ He’ll make sure that you get what you need.
