Follow me

"As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector's booth. "Follow me," he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him. While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew's house..." (Matthew 9:9-10a NIV)

Sometimes when Jesus says "follow me" I get scared about the consequences such obedience may entail, but Jesus when he called Matthew to follow him took him home!

Lord when I doubt, please forgive me

when I am full of fear, love me

when I am unsure of the way, lead me home.
