The Way of Jesus

“To follow means to follow, not to lead. To point not to our own superior moral character but to the dimly seen figure out there that we are stumbling after…All we know is the sound of his voice and maybe the lightest touch of his hands on our shoulders. He is the one we are free to follow or not to follow, the one we begin to know fully only by following. As we follow, we become, such as we are, his church which is to say his body - a weak thing in most ways, half-hearted and of little faith, but full of hope for all that - and the only body that he has in this world, the only hands and feet to do his work. And such is his power that even through us other may be led to follow to.” ~”Follow Me”, Frederick Buechner
