Looking at the life
of Jesus gives us insight. How do we follow Him? What did He seek as He roamed
the roads of Jerusalem? Who did He hang out with? Where did He go as He rose to
meet the day? What were His priorities? We know He was angry at the outward show
of the lawmakers and religious leaders of the day. We know He sees our hearts
as most important; not our degrees or our jobs or our outward appearance.
This week we will
follow the Lord. He knew His purpose and He knew each day brought Him closer to
the cross. He never hurried. He took time to stop and listen to each individual’s
needs along the way. As He walked, He taught His disciples and He continues to
teach us. Let’s start with His teaching and listen to His words before He sets
us out to fulfill our purpose. Let’s follow along with Jesus.
Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees, that I
may follow it to the end. Psalm 119:33
My sheep
listen to my voice. I know them and they follow me. John 10:27
Jesus,
We want to follow You. Teach us to listen for Your voice above
all others. Give us Your wisdom to seek what is most important each day and
give us the patience and love to stop along the way for others.
Amen
