Straightway and Immediately

In Mark's gospel, we see the words 'straightway' and 'immediately' used over and over.

In the 1828 Dictionary of American English, Noah Webster defines the word "Immediately' this way..."Instantly; at the present time; without delay, or the intervention of time."

I am specifically focusing in on the response we see to Jesus' call to "Follow Me" given to Simon (Peter) and his brother Andrew, and John and James, sons of Zebedee. He calls both sets of brothers and 'straightway' Simon and Andrew "forsook their nets, and followed Him."

In the same manner, James and John respond as Jesus called them 'straightway', and "they left their father Zebedee in the ship" and went after Jesus.

The questions are these.

"Am I able to respond to His call 'straightway' when He calls me to follow?"

"Why or why not?"

"If yes, how do you know?"

"If no, what is keeping you from responding immediately and following Him?"
