Making a Way to Return
Luke 9:61-62
And another also said, Lord, I will follow you; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.…


About the time of the reformation a certain bishop who had embraced the new doctrines, and to whom it was therefore of no use, presented a relic (a dead man's toe) to the Church at St. Nicholas, Switzerland. He made the present conditionally with the power of resuming it if he should return to his old ways.

(Sir John Forbes.)
