“Follow Me.” Ok. Where?

“Come, follow me,” Jesus said (Mark 1:17).

“Come, follow me,” was the invitation to the disciples. The first question I would have asked is, “Where?” But Jesus never tells them. The invitation to follow wasn’t to a location, but a person.

Jesus never elaborated where they were going. And that was precisely the point. Following Jesus is less about where, what will happen, how will we pay for the journey. Following Jesus is all about Who we are following.

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.
Jesus is the Savior and Master.
Jesus is our Creator and Sustainer.
Jesus is the Good Shepherd.
And this Jesus loves us, forgives us, sustains us, protects us.

When we know who Jesus is we won’t be demanding answers to our questions because we will have discovered Jesus is all the answer we need.
