Follow the Lamb? We prefer to follow a lion. Mr. Lion gets our vote. We want someone who is strong, commanding and triumphant who will devour our enemies. We forget that Satan is a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Following the Lamb to His sacrificial death, who dies in weakness and not in power, just does not stir us to wave our flag. Following Him by carrying our cross means we go willingly to our own dying. Following the Lamb means that we will live in this world in lamb ways and not in lion ways.
“If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.” John 12:26 (NASB)
