Companionship With Christ

From: Boyd Bailey Ministries
John 12:26 "Whoever serves Me must follow Me; and where I am, My servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves Me."
Following Jesus is much more than just an obedient servant following his Master. It is also a rewarding companionship that with time, grows into intimate friendship. The infinite relational scope of our Lord is able to both lead us and walk with us. 

Our journey with Jesus may vary from day to day, week to week, month to month or year to year. In one season He may serve as a seasoned guide who uses His ice pick up our precipitous glacier of pain, providing us one steady step at a time. Other times He walks with us as a confidant, as He helps us process our questions, doubts and fears. 


Yes, we are needy children of our heavenly Father, but like mature adult children relate to their parents as friends, so as we grow--we become companions of Christ. Divinely, He can both lead and walk with us at once.
