Freedom in Following Jr Dickey

Fundamentally, a disciple follows the Master and in doing so 'abides' in Him, that is, partakes of His Spirit, His Life. It is a lifelong pursuit. It includes hilltops and valleys, stumblings, repentances and restorations. However, most importantly, the disciple, even if there has been a period of absence, when all is said and done, does not stop following. Of course, in following, there may be elation and/or hardship; there may be tremendous grief and/or supreme hope and joy; there may be uncertainty and waywardness and/or absolute confidence and resolute determination; there may be fear and/or faith - in other words, the struggle between human frailty and spiritual strength will also never stop - not until your following becomes a transformation, an uniting, and you are truly, finally, completely born again into eternity. Thus, despite the struggle, you will find a glorious freedom in following.
