I am becoming more and more impressed with the summons to simplicity that Jesus issues: “Follow Me ... trust Me ... learn of Me ...”
He makes no grand promises of a rose-strewn pathway. He doesn’t roll out a blueprint of predictable details forecasting our tomorrows. Nor does He guarantee that we will ever arrive at some comfortable state of perfected accomplishment. Rather, He says, “In the world you will have tribulation.”
But He’s always there. That’s what makes any season of trial, any call to faith, any burden of responsibility a glory time. Jesus is there. Not a doctrine about Him. Not an idea of what He’s like. Not a memory of some past experience.
No. Just Him.
