Following Christ requires more than an initial decision; it requires daily decisions. He wants our thoughtful decisions because He has included us as partners in the great work of His kingdom. “We are God’s fellow workers” (I Corinthians 3:9). To do this we must follow the Senior Partner. He has given us His very own Spirit so that we can be on the same page with Him in His Kingdom work. He asked us to see what He does and do it. He invites us to hear what He is saying and say it; He invites us to put into practice His teachings. This is what it means to follow him.
