I often dream that I am tagging along behind Jesus, longing for him to choose me as one of his disciples.  Without warning, he turns around, looks straight into my eyes, and says, “Follow me!“  My heart races, and I begin to run toward him when he interrupts with, “Oh, not you; the guy behind you.  Sorry.

    Of all the things that leave a person feeling rejected , it is that very thing…thinking you have been complimented or chosen , only to find out that it was not directed at you! I am grateful that God is so solidly in my corner that such a thing would never be possible…this quote piqued my interest in the author. Thanks for the lead
