Drawn To The Father

No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day. - John 6:44

We can’t choose to follow Jesus until you are drawn to him by the Holy Spirit. Being dead in sin, we are unable to surrender our lives to Jesus unless we are born again through the work of the Holy Spirit.

“It is to God you owe your sacrifices of praise. He that hath wrought you up for this felicity is God. It was he who awakened you first, and set you a thinking of your most important concerns: it was he that led you first into the way of salvation by Jesus Christ his Son, and hath thus far crowned your labours and your prayers with success and blessing. Every stumbling-block in your way might have thrown you down to perdition: every temptation might have turned you back from this glorious pursuit : every enemy of your souls might have discouraged or over come, if God and his grace had not been engaged on your tide.” - Isaac Watts
