Walking in his footsteps

I’ve laid down a pattern for you. What I’ve done, you do.
John 13:15 MSG

As citizens of a fast-changing world, we face challenges that sometimes leave us feeling overworked, overcommitted, and overwhelmed. But God has different plans for us. He intends that we slow down long enough to praise Him and to glorify His Son.

Each day, we are confronted with countless opportunities to serve God and to follow in the footsteps of His Son. When we do, our Heavenly Father guides our steps and blesses our endeavors. He lifts our spirits and enriches our lives.

Today provides a glorious opportunity to place yourself in the service of the One who is the Giver of all blessings. May you seek His will, may you trust His Word, and may you walk in the footsteps of His Son.

WWJD = Walking With Jesus Daily. - Anonymous, 100 Days of Prayer

Christ is to be sought and bought with any pains, at any price; we cannot buy this gold too dear. He is a jewel worth more than a thousand worlds. Get him, and get all; miss him and miss all. - Thomas Brooks

To walk out of His will is to walk into nowhere. - C. S. Lewis

Imagine the spiritual strength the disciples drew from walking hundreds of miles with Jesus . . . (3 John 4). - Jim Maxwell

Today’s Prayer
Dear Jesus, because I am Your disciple, I will trust You, I will obey Your teachings, and I will share Your Good News. You have given me life abundant and life eternal, and I will follow You today and forever. Amen
