Imitate God

Imitate God, therefore in everything you do, because you are His dear children (Eph. 5:1 NLT)

What would Jesus do?  A few years ago, there were bracelets, shirts, bumper stickers,etc. everywhere for you to see.  I think today the world would benefit from more of us asking that question before making decisions.  We're called to imitate Christ & we need to know what He would do if we are going to follow through with that.  Think about the things you do in a typical day.  Did you imitate Christ?  Did you imitate Him at work, school, home, the store or when going out to eat?  Did you imitate Him in your words?  Did you imitate Him in your love & service to others?  What about driving down the road?  Was your day lived in fear, frustration, or defeat?  We all struggle in imitating Christ at some point or another.  But if we make it a priority to start asking " What would Jesus do in this situation?"  What a different place this world would be.  So the challenge today is start asking that question before making decisions, & be the imitator you have been called to be!
