Follow Me.

1 Peter 2:21 (Amplified Bible)

For even to this were you called [it is inseparable from your vocation]. For Christ also suffered for you, leaving you [His personal] example, so that you should follow in His footsteps.

Matthew 10:38 (Amplified Bible)

And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also] is not worthy of Me.

Matthew 16:24-26 (Amplified Bible)

Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to be My disciple, let him deny himself [disregard, lose sight of, and forget himself and his own interests] and take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying, also].

For whoever is bent on saving his [temporal] life [his comfort and security here] shall lose it [eternal life]; and whoever loses his life [his comfort and security here] for My sake shall find it [life everlasting].

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life [his blessed life in the kingdom of God]? Or what would a man give as an exchange for his [blessed] life [in the kingdom of God]?



  • I'm a coward.
  • I'm selfish.
  • I'm obnoxious.
  • I'm imperfect.
  • I'm Lonely.
  • I'm insensitive.
  • I'm insecure.
  • I feel imprisoned by myself.
I'm a Sinner, A sinner in the finest. How I long to just leave everything behind and follow Him.
