Followers not just believers

It may be easy to say we believe,
but does that mean we did receive,
that Christ offered himself for us,
so we in him could live victorious? 
We may call ourselves believers,
but does that mean we are seekers,
desperate to know & live out his word,
so His message will be seen and heard?
To say we follow Jesus, must be more,
more than mere talk, that is for sure,
it calls for obedience to walk in His way,
anything else causes our souls to decay. 
To follow Jesus is a life long commitment,
there is no in-between nor being dormant,
we must strive for our walk & talk to be n'sync,
if we do not, then are we whose we think? 
Because following Jesus means denying self,
so we can be conformed to Christ himself,
following Jesus means taking up our cross,
and for Christ's sake, we count all but loss.
