Imitate Christ.

I have started reading a classic book called “The Imitation of Christ” by Thomas Kempis. I highly recommend it. Of course as the title implies much of it is about as followers of Jesus we are to imitate Him as closely as possible in our daily lives. A quote from the book says “Let our chief effort, therefore, be to study the life of Jesus Christ. An another “Yet whoever wishes to understand fully the words of Christ must try to pattern his whole life on that of Christ.” Wow! Take a moment to think about those two statements. Are you studying the life of Jesus and then patterning your life after Him?

Ephesians 5:1 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.

1 Corinthians 11:1 Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.

1 Peter 2:21 For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.

1 John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

This lesson is very biblical as you can see, let us imitate Jesus!
