Follow me is such a common refrain today. Follow me on Instagram. Follow me on Twitter.
We want to,have followers. We want to be significant. We want others to think we are important when we ask them to follow us.
On social media, you don't need to do anything other than click to follow somebody. Just click and then you will be able to see everything they do or say. All without leaving the comfort of your smartphone.
That's not what Jesus was looking for. When he asks you to follow him, it is because he thinks you are important. You must leave the comfort of your smartphone and be willing to give up everything to follow him. When he asks you to follow him, it's not because he wants one more follower, it's because he wants you!
