Follow Me

He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed. Proverbs 13:20

  Have you ever had someone ask you for directions? I can recall a number of times when I began to explain the route this glazed look comes over them. More times than not I’ll say “just follow me”

Paul tells us to “Follow me” or in the NKJV “ Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ”. in 1^st Corinthians 11:1.

How many of us would be able to say to someone who doesn’t know how to follow God, Follow me”? We sometimes find it easier to explain the route rather than just say “Watch my life”.

If your reading this and are thinking that there is no way I’m ready to have someone follow me, than can I suggest you find someone who is willing to let you follow them.

Pray and ask God to put someone (of the same gender) in your life that you could be discipled by.

Don’t live out your Christian life lost, ask for direction.

Daily Bible Reading: Exodus 25-26; 2 Thessalonians 3

Quote of the day:  Do we give sufficient attention to the theme of gaining Christ? It is our joy and privilege to know Him as God’s unspeakable gift, but none knew this more fully than the apostle Paul. But was he satisfied with this knowledge? Or was Paul’s soul-consuming desire, at all possible cost, to gain Christ; and thus to know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings? Oh that Christ may be so known by us as a ‘living, bright reality’ that our one desire-our one absorbing heart-passion may be that we personally gain Christ-that we personally know Him as the apostle longed to do. James Hudson Taylor
