Searching ,in a Super Store,sometimes, happens to me.It
is a relief when an attendant says ...Follow me. Follow me ,is better than
directions,instructions,or explanations.The Christian religion ,Jesus
teaches ,is ...Follow Me ..He is The Shepherd that leads the Way.I think
that we can get mixed up between ‘church’,and ‘following Christ’ ,and what
that means.The church is not God.It is ,hopefully ,a pointer, towards
God.Indeed,the church ,chosen,by Jesus Himself,doesent shine too good in
to days Story.When they ‘run into trouble with their Samaritan neighbours,they
...His Church,ask Jesus to destroy the Samaritans...wipe them out.Jesus
doesn’t seem to go into explanations.He says Follow Me.
No,there is no perfect church.Someone ,said ...’there
can’t be ,if I’m in it.People can be very hurt,and disencouraged,by
‘church’,and none more so than ‘the religious themselves’.The bottom line
is not ‘opt out’, because of me ,or it,but to Follow, because of Him. How
....well that’s the challenge. A good woman ,advised me recently.She said
,that life is full of experiences,everyday ,having to make choices,what do
I do.She says ‘I ask what is best in me,I try to do that .I think ...that’s
Following Christ..
