I will follow You

I will follow You

   On my way home tonight the song “ I will follow You” by Chris Tomlin came on and I thought how perfect for the blog. The song made me think of how well or not well am I follow Jesus and with it being just about 1/3 of the way through Lent, it is a great time to reflect. 

     How have you been doing with your Lenten goals? Did you start of strong but you kind of have been fading some? Did you fall somewhat but have gotten back on track? Lent is not over and if you have not decided on anything or have fallen short there is still time.  We are called to follow Jesus not just to Calvary but to all areas of His life. We are to follow Him as He spoke, helped, reached out, fed, clothed, listened, laughed, loved. It is more then a Lenten Journey. It is a Life Journey, a Life calling.  

      In the song there is a line that says “ If this life I lose, I will follow you”. We are to lose our chains to this world so we may follow Jesus and serve as He served, love as He loved. It is a great message to carry with us as we enter the remaining 2/3 of Lent and beyond until we are no longer here. I have included the video and lyrics below and I hope that they give you the strength to carry on with your journey with Jesus this lent and for eternity. 

Until tomorrow, God Bless, and may we, and the church, follow Jesus. 

"I Will Follow"

Where you go, I'll go

Where you stay, I'll stay

When you move, I'll move

I will follow...

All your ways are good

All your ways are sure

I will trust in you alone

Higher than my sight

High above my life

I will trust in you alone (trust in you alone)

Where you go, I'll go

Where you stay, I'll stay

When you move, I'll move

I will follow you

Who you love, I'll love

How you serve I'll serve

If this life I lose, I will follow you, yeah

I will follow you, yeah

Light unto the world

Light unto my life

I will live for you alone

You're the one I seek

Knowing I will find

All I need in you alone, in you alone

Where you go, I'll go

Where you stay, I'll stay

When you move, I'll move

I will follow you

Who you love, I'll love

How you serve, I'll serve

If this life I lose, I will follow you

I will follow you, yeah

In you there's life everlasting

In you there's freedom for my soul

In you there's joy, unending joy

And I will follow

Where you go, I'll go

Where you stay, I'll stay

When you move, I'll move

I will follow

Who you love, I'll love

How you serve, I'll serve

If this life I lose, I will follow

Where you go, I'll go

Where you stay, I'll stay

When you move, I'll move

I will follow you

Who you love, I'll love

How you serve, I'll serve

If this life I lose, I will follow you, yeah

I will follow you, yeah
