VERSE OF THE WEEK
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. – Ephesians 6:1
Be Like Him
Many years ago, a commercial for a power drink said “Be Like Mike” and featured basketball legend Michael Jordan in a scrimmage with a number of children. The objective, of course, was that they should drink the power juice, but the kids’ goal was to play ball more like Mike. Today’s verse says we are to be like children following in the footsteps of our Father… just as small children imitate what they see a parent doing. God, whose love is beyond all measure, calls you to love as He does. Jesus outlines what that love looks like in Matthew chapters 5 and 6. Ponder the Lord’s words today, check your love quotient, and get busy being like Him.
