Detour (3)
"Jesus knew the Pharisees had heard that he was baptising and making more disciples than John (though Jesus himself didn’t baptize them — his disciples did). So he left Judea and returned to Galilee."
~ John 4.1-3 NLT
Jesus stayed focused on his mission.
Baptising and making disciples are good things, for sure, but what is the primary mission? In Jesus' case, to go to the Cross.
I ought to know what God's primary mission to me is. And not get sidetracked by good things so much that I get detoured from my primary mission.
