follow

What does it mean to the world when they hear the question...
"what does it mean to follow Jesus?"
Does it mean, automatically, that the person asking the question
is some sort of unhinged, crutch-wielding sheep?
Would the asker be most likely wearing their Sunday best
and holding out their hand to "collect"?
Would they be trying to "convert" or to "collect" you...
to add numbers to a suspiciously corporate organization?
Would they be on some sort of pedestal...
telling you that you are wrong or that
they are right...
or that they have some sort of handle on a truth that you
couldn't possibly comprehend?
Or could they maybe look a lot like you?
Listen to your music?
Be relevant? Edgy even?
Create relevant works of exciting, fresh art?
Love because what this world really needs is love?
Could they just blend in and be
an "everyman" or "everywoman",
perform no miracles, and just care because
they've discovered something that matters and
Someone that moves them to care?
