Do you have followers in your life? Of course, we all do. It may be children, friends, family, co-workers or even strangers. Our influence goes beyond our short sightedness. You are being observed and judged more than you know.
We form opinions about who we want to be like and who we never want to imitate. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. 'Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.' Ephesians 5;1 That is part of our sanctification journey, to become more and more like Him.
Can you say He is pleased by what is becoming of you? Are you a godly role model to your followers?
It is my prayer and my heart's desire that I be godly role models for those whom God has placed in my life. This is something we all need to hear over and over again, never to forget. And by the way, I want to be like you, my godly role model.
ReplyDeleteGood thoughts to ponder. I sure pray that I am being a godly role model. But, I know I can stand some improvement.
ReplyDeleteAngie, Thank you for the words of insight I need just when I need it. Robbie
ReplyDeleteI have heard you say before, "You may be the only Bible some people will ever read." Wow, how convicting is that?! I, like those above, pray I am the Godly example that God would have me to be....that others might know just by my actions that He truly is first in my life. That reminds me of that old hymn, "Let others see Jesus in me." My prayer is that....love you, T.
