The Way
Jesus is
the way.
There is
a tension or a balance in following Jesus.
On the
one hand, following Jesus does not mean simply tagging along. Jesus’ way is not a physical road, and if we
just keep dragging along, without efforts or intentionality, eventually we’ll
get there.
We follow
Jesus’ way by living, acting, and loving in the manner that He did.
On the other
hand, it is a journey that Jesus himself walks with us and leads us. In fact, by ourselves, we can’t do it. We
have his words of assurance, “I will come back again and take you to myself, so
that where I am you also may be.”
