As they were on their way, one said, “I will follow you wherever you go. Jesus said: “The foxes have burrows, the birds of the sky nests, but this Man has nowhere to lay his head.

Colloquium in front of a call

Lord, I can’t walk half-heartedly with you,

but that’s how I feel many times.

I want to go after you.

but I’m still clinging to my things and sticks,

only You can make him follow you:

Your love every day about me,

your voice that won’t leave me,

your look that accompanies me

in all my losses.

Can I start over today?

Can I open my life with you

as I am?

You tell me again and again:

Follow me.

Bring me here, Lord, after you.

Give me confidence and courage

to put in you my heart

and my whole life.

Oh, my God, and all my things!
