Thomas a Kempis was not a haphazard follower of Jesus.
A classic in every state of the word, ``The Imitation of Christ`` places the fruit of one man\'s single.
A Kempis lived as intentionally as he wrote.
We must turn away from the things of this world, we must live sacrificially, we must be inundated with Christ\'s passionate teaching, and we must pray to be removed from distraction.
The depth of his masterpiece mirrors the life of a man who did whatever was necessary to imitate his own Savior.
