iGive-Day 2-Follow the Leader

Read 1 John 1-2

Have you ever seen a mother duck with her ducklings in the spring time? The mother duck waddles along with all of her ducklings following close behind in a single file line. For weeks, they will follow their mother everywhere, learning how to swim, to find food, and to survive. They will undergo extensive training on how to be a real duck.

"Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did." (1 John 2:6)

In America, millions confess to be a follower of Jesus, but you would never know it by the way they chose to live their lives.  If put on trial for being a Christian, they could never be convicted because there would be no evidence to present on their behalf.

If we claim to be a follower of the Jesus, then our lifestyles should reflect the life that He lived while here on the earth. He is our example of a life fully lived for God. We must study His life in the scriptures, spend time in prayer and devotion, and learn to listen to His voice that we may become more and more like Him each day!


Prayer for today: Ask God to conform you into the image of His son Jesus Christ.
