Have you ever spent time with a small child or baby and had them mimic your every sound or action? To them, it’s a fun game, but internally, they learn by watching and copying everything you do. They just watch and do the same thing. That’s because we are all prewired to be imitators.
Just like little children, we are all still imitators. So many people today end up imitating what they see in the world, on TV, in the news and in magazines. But scripture tells us that we are to be imitators of God and follow His example of love.
Today, if you need to change your actions, change what you are imitating by simply changing your focus. The more you focus on the Word, the more you will imitate God. And when you do things God’s way, you will get God’s results: peace, joy and blessings all the days of your life!
“Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” (Ephesians 5:1–2, NIV)
Let’s Pray
Yahweh, I put You first place in my life and seek to imitate You. Father, I set aside the things of the world and invite You to search my heart and mind. God, give me Your heart of love and teach me to be an example of Your goodness in Christ’s name. Amen.
