Follow Christ

The humble servant of the Lord is not afraid to the Lord's will.  He knows that he cannot possibly do what God asks of him but believes that through God all is possible.  To be humble you have to be prayerful, if you are prayerful then you have the ability to hear the voice of the Beloved.  Humility and poverty of Spirit are key to following Christ and doing His will.

Being poor in spirit frees you up to follow Christ where He leads.  Humility frees you from caring what others think of you when you choose Christ.  Following Christ, not merely following your own desires and calling it Christ, will lead you to places you never dreamed of and to do things you never felt capable of.

Truly, radically, lovingly follow Christ.  Do what He commanded, love one another as I have loved you.  You will be safe, if not mortally then spiritually.  Our goal is heaven and Christ leads us there, follow Him and only Him.
