Jesus rarely asked to be worshiped. He asked repeatedly to be followed.
Many Christians prefer to worship and praise God, than to follow. You can sing, feel warm things in your heart, tell God how great he is, and then go back to your life. It is a one hour on Sunday morning faith.
To be a follower is something different. It is a path that consumes your every day, your every waking moment. It is not satisfied with warm thoughts towards God, followers insist on warm thoughts towards everyone. Those that choose the path of follower are always asking themselves how they can love more.
It is easier to worship than to follow. But it is much more fun, much more fulfilling to follow Jesus' life of love.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
