Lord Christ, you did not come to the world to be served nor to be admired 
either, or in that sense worshipped. You yourself were the way and the
life 
– and you require only followers. If we have dozed off into this 
infatuation, wake us up, rescue us from this error of wanting to admire or

adoringly admire you instead of wanting to follow you and be like you.
