Follow Jesus
Today's word: Ephesians 5:1-4
1Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children 2and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
As a Christian, are you carefully following your leader? Do all your activities please the Lord? Are the places you go the kind of places He would feel comfortable? Are your close friends the kind of kids He would want you to spend a lot of time with? If not, you may find yourself in trouble. You are apt to fall into all kinds of sin. Don't get caught in such things. Follow Jesus.

3But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people. 4Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.

The Christian classic "In His Steps" by Charles M.Sheldon is a good read... a challenge to follow Jesus in every decision, even if it means losing money, job, life...
