Ephesians 5:1 NASB "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;"As I walked into the kitchen, I realized he was right behind me! Spending time with my one of my grandsons, makes me aware of today's verse even more. No matter what I am doing, he is watching and trying to imitate me. Sometimes his attempts are rather funny to watch as he tries to do what I do but sooner or later he usually gets it right! I couldn't help but wonder who do we imitate in our lives?! Do we follow the crowd or do we follow where the Holy Spirit leads us men to be leaders against the grain. Men standing firm upon God's Word to right the wrongs, to speak up for those who are too weak to speak, to be the hands and feet of Christ to those needing help?! The only way we can be imitators of God is by staying in His Word, remember Jesus said "I do what I see my Father do! " Can we say the same thing, that we are doing what we see God our Father doing by learning His Ways? Something to think about as others are watching and imitating us! peace, tom
