Today is the last day of our focus on the gospel of John. In the beginning was the Word...he is the light that shines in darkness, and Jesus has called all people to FOLLOW this light, to follow him!
In this book we have received revelation of who Jesus is and how he interacts with our life. Right at the end of the book (as in the beginning) Jesus calls Peter to "Follow me!" v 19. Peter then starts talking about John but Jesus says, don't worry about him, don't compare yourselves to others or worry about what I am doing with them... You just focus on following me. v21
It is so much easier for me to read, discuss and think about what Jesus said than to actually follow him. My question for you today, is after reading through John's account of Jesus, what does it mean for you to follow him today?

I so much want to thank others for their writings over the past months.
We are followers of a person, not an idea or religion. After reading peoples reflections I feel like I have really grown in my understanding of that person.
I have a clearer idea of who I am now called to follow.
