Mark 6:12, "They went out and preached that people should repent."

Think

In today's verse, the disciples immediately obeyed Jesus' command to go out and share God's truth. Every day, people live their own versions of life without realizing that they are heading straight towards eternal separation from God. For that reason, the disciples acted quickly. They understood the urgency of this message because, without repentance, they knew people could not experience the life God wanted to give them. Repenting is about changing our minds, which we do multiple times a day. But it is more than that; it's a complete resetting of the mind. The disciples went out and taught those in a mayday dilemma that they needed to repent – to take the first action step toward God's course correction before it was too late! Living a life based on our own terms is really a life of rejecting Christ and being receptive to sin. By repenting, completely changing our minds, we flip the script by choosing to receive Christ and reject sin. If you are in a mayday dilemma, Jesus is the only answer. Don't delay, make the decision to repent today! Because, right now, Jesus is ready to respond to your mayday call.
