“And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” –Matthew 4:19 KJV

"Wilt thou follow Me?" The Savior asked. The road looked bright and fair, And filled with youthful hope and zeal I answered, "Anywhere." "Wilt thou follow Me?" Again He asked. The road looked dim ahead; But I gave one glance at His glowing face "To the end, dear Lord," I said. "Wilt thou follow Me?" I almost blanched, For the road was rough and new, But I felt the grip of His steady Hand, And it thrilled me through and through. "Still followest thou?" 'Twas a tender tone, And it thrilled my inmost heart. I answered not, but He drew me close, And I knew we would never part. --Author Unknown

But, O my soul, don’t be discouraged. Don’t be upset. Expect God to act! For I know that I shall again have plenty of reason to praise him for all that he will do. He is my help! He is my God!
Psalm 42:11 TLB
