HOW DO I FOLLOW JESUS? - By Calvin Wulf

Christian Discipleship






I was auditing a Fuller Seminary class recently when I caught myself thinking how I expend a lot of brain power trying to explain life in Christ. Then the voice of Jesus interrupted saying, "All I ever asked you to do is follow me." That was reassuring at first, but then I realized I really didn't  know how to follow him the way he asked.

The image of what he offered seemed simple. It reminded me of his promise, "My yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Matthew 11:30) All he asks me to do is follow. 

Nobody ever showed me how to follow Jesus like that. Maybe the Church has forgotten how. Only by faith can I let go of what I know and simply follow the Rabbi. What will you do?
