Following Christ

Jesus saith unto him…what is that to thee? Follow thou Me.
John 21:22

I wonder what distractions of life will turn me aside from the path He enjoins today? I wonder how many times I’ll stumble; how many times I’ll compromise; how many times I’ll sin? Although we should be aware of our spiritual weakness, it is a bleak way to start a day! Rather than being consumed with self, we ought to fix our eyes on Him. The path of faith is to trust Him in all things--today included--preeminently, purposefully and permanently.    
--Rick Morse

With Christ in my heart, and His Word in my hand;
I travel in haste through an enemy’s land,
The road may be rough, but it cannot be long;
So I journey on singing the conqueror’s song.
