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
