Follow Me

9 As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,” he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him. Matthew 9:9

 

Follow. It’s in human DNA-follow. We seek something to follow.

Follow a cause. We have passion to follow a cause.

The millennia are littered with abandoned causes, strewn with disappointments.

Every human cause flawed with imperfection, predestined to eventual failure.

Follow a person. Sports, entertainment, politics…we find our flawed heroes.

Earth bound causes and heroes glitter, gleam, in temporary charm.

When one fails, we seek another. Is this the one?

There is one perfect fail-proof foundation. He’s a forever hero.

He’s the way, never lost, never abandons… always TRUTH.

Jesus calls to us. A love filled invitation. “Follow me.”

 

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life…” John 14:6
